THE 2018 THE AGNES CHARDONNAY IS PRODUCED FROM THREE DIFFERENT VINEYARDS IN THE HEMEL-EN-AARDE AND OVERBERG REGIONS. THE SOILS OF THESE VINEYARDS RANGE FROM HEAVY CLAY TO INTERMEDIATE SHALE AND SANDSTONE TYPES. THE FINAL BLEND RETAINS THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THESE INDIVIDUAL SITES BUT FORMS AN IDENTITY WHICH IS BOTH UNIQUE AND GREATER THAN THE SUM OF ITS PARTS.
THIS VINTAGE OF THE AGNES IS CONCENTRATED AND BEAUTIFULLY BALANCED. THE NOSE IS WONDERFULLY EXPRESSIVE WITH NOTES OF LIME, GRAPEFRUIT, NECTARINE AND RIPE PEACH. THE PALATE IS INTENSE AND LAYERED WITH A STRONG FRUIT CORE AND LOVELY FRESH ACIDITY.
