About this Item

Kevin Grant - Ataraxia

An Ataraxia Journey - Under the Gavel Chardonnay Vertical comprising 1 bottle of each of the following vintages: 2020, 2021, 2022

This elegant vertical collection from Ataraxia Wines invites bidders on a refined exploration of terroir, time, and craftsmanship through three consecutive vintages of Kevin Grant’s masterfully made Chardonnay.

Each vintage in this three-bottle set (3 x 750ml) reflects the nuanced evolution of a signature style that has positioned Ataraxia among the Cape’s most revered Chardonnay producers:

2020 - A beautifully poised vintage, offering citrus blossom, lemon curd, and subtle oak spice, with vibrant acidity and a mineral-laced finish.

2021 - A cooler growing season lends tension and restraint. This wine is tightly wound, with notes of green apple, wet stone, and a flinty elegance that promises long-term ageing potential.

2022 - The youngest of the trio shows generosity and texture, with ripe stone fruit, chamomile, and a polished, creamy palate balanced by signature freshness.

All three wines are barrel-fermented and matured in carefully selected French oak, reflecting Ataraxia’s unwavering commitment to site expression and finesse.

This vertical offers collectors a rare opportunity to experience the progression of a Hemel-en-Aarde Chardonnay across three vintages—each a distinct chapter in a story of precision and place.

This collection is packed in a wooden box.
