Tasting notes
The 2008 Chardonnay Lowengang emerges from the glass with expressive layers of varietal, tropical fruit underpinned by vibrant acidity. The weight of these old vines, which range from 25-65 years of age, comes through beautifully in the wine's depth and nuance. Hints of French oak frame the expressive, creamy finish.
