The Storm Ridge Chardonnay 2023 is a white wine originating from the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge ward in South Africa`s Walker Bay. This vintage is produced entirely from Chardonnay grapes sourced from a single vineyard, known for its stony, Table Mountain sandstone soils. Winemaker Hannes Storm employs minimal intervention methods to ensure that the unique terroir of the vineyard is articulated in the wine. The 2023 vintage reflects a generally mild growing season, contributing to the retention of natural acidity. Expect a structured palate marked by flavours of green apple, citrus, and a distinct mineral backbone.

Vinous
The 2023 Chardonnay Ridge was hand-picked and vinified with 20% whole bunch. It went through 100% malo and matured for 11 months in French oak, including 8% in clay amphora. This has a bright and lively bouquet with lemon balm, linden and light crushed stone aromas. The palate is well balanced with a smooth texture, presenting touches of tangerine and citrus peel. There is a subtle candied element on the finish that I like. Very appealing.
