Winemaker’s comments:

 

The Chardonnay from Chateau Capion was vinified for the smoothness and softness of the blend, the Chenin Blanc from Saxenburg is for the fruitiness and freshness. This wine has a young green/yellow colour and the bouquet is full-ripe, rich and fresh with a peachy aroma and hints of almonds.

 

The taste is very smooth, soft, melonny, with a bit of citrus. It is well balanced with a strong Chardonnay character and a fresh long, creamy finish.
