It’s beautifully floral, fruity and oh-so refreshing—a must-taste for Chardonnay fans.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb role=\"emphasis\"\u003eWild Child Chardonnay\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ecomes from the Gabb family’s aptly named estate, Journey’s End, seated in South Africa's Schapenberg hills with some of the most southerly vineyards in the Stellenbosch appellation. Supple, smooth and fruit-forward, it proves why renowned writer and Master of Wine Jancis Robinson calls Chardonnay the family’s “strongest suit.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts name is inspired by the family’s winemaking philosophy. Crafted with hand-harvested, biodynamically farmed fruit, the wine was partially ‘wild’ fermented, meaning natural yeasts kickstarted the conversion from grape sugars to alcohol, and there was minimal winemaker intervention througout the winemaking process. The goal of this approach is to let what Mother Nature take the lead, and to let the fruit's purity shine through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe final wine is a delicious testimate to the process. Opening with delicate aromas of citrus, yellow apple, white peach and orange blossom, the palate is equally fruitful, with a zesty finish. It's an excellent match for roasted white meats, fresh seafood or grilled vegetables.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lionstone International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50170220478773,"sku":"3008224","price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0841\/7650\/3093\/files\/WildChildChard2024ShopifyShot.jpg?v=1778387915","url":"https:\/\/www.lionstone.com\/products\/wild-child-coastal-region-chardonnay-south-africa-2024","provider":"Lionstone International","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
