Ivory Chardonnay

2005 Western Cape Chardonnay

The Ivory Creek Ivory Chardonnay from the 2005 vintage showcases the vibrant essence of a classic Western Cape white wine. This medium-bodied Chardonnay presents a delightful harmony of bright acidity and prominent fruit intensity, offering notes of crisp green apple and ripe citrus that dance on the palate. The well-integrated and subtle tannins add a delicate structure, enhancing the overall mouthfeel without overpowering the fruit characteristics. This wine is bone dry, making it a refreshing choice for any occasion. With its enticing flavor profile and elegant finish, the Ivory Creek Ivory Chardonnay truly exemplifies the exceptional qualities of the Western Cape region.

Western Cape

The majority of South Africa's best wines are produced in the southwest coastal zones around Cape Town, known collectively as the Western Cape. Sandwiched between the country's majestic mountains and its cooling ocean coasts (the Atlantic to the west of the Cape of Good Hope, the Indian Ocean to its east), the Western Cape offers a wealth of winemaking riches. Regions here include the Breede River Valley, Cape South Coast, Coastal Region, Klein Karoo and Olifants River.
