Paul Cluver Estate Chardonnay

The history of Paul Clüver Family Wines goes back to 1896 when the first generation of the Clüver family began farming on the De Rust farm in Elgin. Four generations of the Clüver’s pioneering spirit in agriculture and conservation has led to today’s status of Paul Clüver Family Wines as a leading producer of world-class noble varietal wines specialising in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay while also begin a showcase of Cape wineland conservation.<br> <br> "On the nose the Paul Cluver Chardonnay reveals great aspects of citrus with some stone fruit and oak notes. Tangerine fruit and citrus blossom fragrances are apparent, with hints of vanilla pod and almond &#64258;akes. The palate is an exciting combination of crisp citrus fruit with great complexity, concentration. The balanced, fresh acidity is natural, and adds focus to the wine. The good acidity and balance between wood and fruit keeps the wine from being overly rich and consequently, great without food too.<br> <br> Food pairing: Fish, poultry, pork and game bird dishes work well with this wine. It works particularly well with creamy pastas and salmon dishes. Mussel soup is a perfect match."
