De Wetshof Bateleur Chardonnay 2024 is a single-vineyard white wine from Robertson, South Africa. The fruit is sourced from vines planted in 1987 on limestone-rich soils, which impart a specific mineral tension to the wine. It was fermented and matured in French oak barrels, resulting in a profile of citrus blossoms, white peach and a subtle nutty complexity. The estate focuses on traditional Burgundian techniques to produce a Chardonnay with a balanced acidity and a long, creamy finish.

Vinous
The 2024 Chardonnay Bateleur comes from 3.5 hectares of vine planted in 1986. This, again, has plenty of more tropical fruit on the nose, although there is a little more nuance here with hints of dried honey and apricot. The palate is balanced on the entry, a little vanilla, quite leesy and then the finish just lacks the mineralité and precision that would warrant a higher score. Enjoyable, though not memorable.
