Neil is a very highly respected winemaker in South Africa and he goes about his work quietly, impressing everyone who tastes his wines. For £9 you can taste all that is great about South African Chardonnay in this wine. The sunshine, the fruit integrity, the cool nights and perky acidity, the technical know-how and perfectly judged oak, and the finesse and class that is intrinsic in their greatest wines. This is a stunner.
