Backsberg Estate Organic Chardonnay Backsberg Paarl RSA

A Cape classic claret styled red with medium-body and weight, but in the mouth there are layers of mint, blackcurrant, plums and integrated oak. This makes it very elegant and thoroughly delicious. (6 x 75 cl)

An Oaked Chardonnay wine with a deep golden colour. Toasted with honey, butter, vanilla and roasted almonds on the nose. Good, long lees contact gives it a smooth, creamy palate, with a long, lingering finish. (12 x 75 cl)

This Babylons Toren selection Chardonnay came from low yielding vineyards producing grapes with exceptional flavours of apricot and pear. Barrel fermentation in small French oak barriques has provided the structure and nuances of almond and vanilla. Malolactic fermentation and ten months ageing on the yeast lees, has added a creamy texture and a long finish. (6 x 75 cl)

An elegant bouquet of aromatic and floral tones gives way to a sweet, ripe, mulberry flavour with impressive dimensions and structure. Complex mix of sweet, mint, violet, berry and toasty vanilla make this a great Cape red. (12 x 75 cl)

Quite racy and zesty to start this dry wine then develops beautifully in the glass to deliver a balanced berry fruit flavour and sweetish taste, but with a strong crisp lime and lemon finish. (12 x 75 cl)

The bouquet has hints of vanilla and an almost oaky character. Enticing peach, apricot, lemon lead into a fruity mouthful where more tropical flavours add complexity. (12 x 75 cl)

This Babylons Toren selection Viognier came from low yielding vineyards producing grapes with exceptional flavours of apricot, peach and lemon.
