Experience the pure, sun-drenched elegance of Eikendal Janina Unwooded Chardonnay, a vibrant expression of the Helderberg’s maritime terroir. This unique white wine blends fruit from four distinct blocks and three different clones to achieve its multi-layered character. You will discover an inviting nose of green apple, fresh pineapple, and zesty lemon. Delicate nuances of honey and orange blossom develop on the palate, adding a touch of floral sweetness to the aromatic profile. On the palate, the wine delivers a rich entry with a broad mid-palate and a stunning mineral edge. You get a masterful, flinty finish that remains tight, fresh, and exceptionally long. Trust this unwooded gem to provide a crisp and sophisticated alternative to traditional barrel-fermented styles.
