Paul Cluver Chardonnay

Acacia and pear mingle with nuts and biscuits, joined by honey and toast. Perfectly integrated acidity keeps the body in shape. Dense, spicy, full. Very complex, with distinct minerality in the finish. A little Corton-Charlemagne.

The Winery

Paul Cluver

In search of cool locations in South Africa, coming from Cape Town in a southeasterly direction, you pass through the Hottentots Holland Mountains and then reach Elgin. As you drive up the key-shaped highlands, the climate and vegetation change: it is cool. Actually, Elgin is known for apples and peaches.

Paul Cluver was one of the first to recognize the potential of the region. He dedicates himself exclusively to grape varieties that are suitable for the cool climate of the Elgin plateau and can optimally reflect the terroir. Today, he is one of the absolute top producers in South Africa and can hardly keep up with all the awards. Burgundian finesse from the other end of the world!
