About this Item

Bon Vallon Chardonnay, 2009
12 (2 x 6) 750ml

Named after the proprietors the De Wet family, De Wetshof has been synonymous with the production of fine wines since the 1970’s and was the first registered wine estate in the Robertson Wine Valley. One of the pioneers in introducing Chardonnay to SA, they have now become renowned for their Chardonnay abroad.

Coming from one of SA’s greatest modern-day vintages, this is an unwooded, yet complex and age-worthy Chardonnay from a site specific vineyard categorised by soils rich in limestone and broken mountain rock.

Critics Ratings

Ripe but focused, delivering creamy yellow apple and melon notes nicely framed by verbena and honeysuckle. Stylish finish... 10,000 cases made.’ – Wine Spectator (February 2011), 89/100
