Hamilton Russell: Refined & Mineral-Driven South African Chardonnay
Hamilton Russell Vineyards Chardonnay is a renowned white wine from the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, South Africa. Known for its Burgundian-style approach, this wine delivers a distinctive minerality and elegance that reflect its unique terroir. With barrel fermentation in French oak, the wine develops a rich, layered complexity while maintaining a fresh and vibrant character.
On the nose, expect aromas of citrus, white stone fruits, and hints of oyster shell, complemented by subtle toasty notes from the oak. The palate is textured and full, offering flavors of ripe pear, green apple, and lime, balanced by a fine acidity and a long, dry finish. Aged for around 9 months in oak, the wine showcases beautiful integration of fruit and oak, making it both vibrant and structured.
Hamilton Russell Vineyards Chardonnay pairs wonderfully with rich fish dishes like salmon or tuna, poultry, and creamy pastas. Whether you’re enjoying an intimate dinner at your Emirates Hills villa in Dubai or hosting friends in your Saadiyat Island home in Abu Dhabi, this wine is sure to impress. CityDrinks ensures quick delivery, with your wine arriving within 2 hours, ready to enjoy.
