Limestone soil, huge diurnal shifts accelerated by wind. De Wetshof pioneered the first unoaked Chardonnay in the region. Sea salt, oyster, saline, fresh lemon, lemon zest, white peach, white pear, green apple, sour cream from malo, reductive, high dry extract with no oak. Gravelly on the palate. Racy acidity, medium body, medium plus finish, 13% abv.

I really love these Robertson Chardonnays. True limestone terroir. Briny, racy, clean and charming. Excellent food potential.

No oak, but it has complex and creamy texture adding body. Highly valued.
