Boutinot began as a tiny importer in 1980, specialising in French wines. Paul Boutinot himself began by personally selecting the wines from France, back in the UK he would unload the trailer by hand. And deliver the crates of wines to customers himself. But good things grow and by the end of the decade they had become a bigger and better company. A company that not only sought out great wines but made them too. 10 years later, Boutinot France started in January 1990. The first office was in the middle of the vines in Julienas; perfectly located to navigate the Beaujolais and Macon regions on the quest to make beautiful wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eToday, Boutinot’s French office has relocated to Macon, and has over 20 employees who take care of production across the whole of France, covering fresh whites and rosés from Gascony, mineral wines from Burgundy, and joyful varietal wines from Languedoc among others. There is no single model to source the wines; instead, a combination of sources are used, from large-scale, high-quality co-ops to small, family growers and single domaines, as well as their own vineyards in Cairanne and Saint-Vérand. Drawing on the expertise of their four in-house winemakers and a network of partner growers, they seek to deliver the highest quality-to-price ratio possible for every wine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard and Winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn unique take on Pinot Noir from two growers' plantings in the sun drenched vineyards of the Southern Languedoc.

The six varieties, some familiar (Grenache Noir, Syrah, Mourvèdre) and others less so (Cinsault, Counoise and Carignan Noir) are hand-picked and hand-sorted to ensure perfect ripeness. Some varieties are co-fermented for greater complexity and all are fermented in large 6,000 litre oak vats by the natural yeasts present on the grape skins.

Though close to Cos d'Estournel, the value of this unique terroir was far less recognised and after the war Hervé set about buying all of the other McCarthy plots, gradually building up an estate of 76 hectares. This passed to his son Henri, who established the wines' pedigree, and today the operation is run with verve and commitment by his sons Hugues and Bruno. From the outset the Duboscqs developed their own style, favouring greater approachability when compared with the more muscular wines of other St. Estèphe estates.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard and Winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade by the Duboscq family who own Château Haut-Marbuzet.

A dozen hectares are located on the commune of Lacapelle Cabannac. The lower parts of the vineyard are clay while the higher parts are clay, limestone and hard flint. Quality control is a major factor to production, with low yielding limits applied to each patch to help produce ripe, healthy grapes whilst maintaining a good balance with the land. Pesticides are only applied according to a weekly statistical parasite count and weather forecast. The vines, including some very old Malbec, are planted in clay-limestone soil which helps to keep yields naturally low (productivity is approximately 4.500 litres per hectare). Chateau Pineraie is made of 85% Côt (Malbec) and 15% Merlot with the grapes being hand sorted according to very strict specifications. Fermentation is controlled to 30 degrees with maceration on the skins from 2 - 3 weeks, including frequent pumping over and aeration. The wine is then aged for one year in oak barrels, 20% of which are new barrels.

Thanks to the team of pickers that are constantly on hand at Château Laville (to perform the various passes through the vineyard required to make top Sauternes), Jean-Christophe is able to wait and pick the Merlot and Cabernet grapes when they are ripe (which can be an issue in this part of Bordeaux), rather than when he has pickers available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard and Winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJean-Christophe's original 1.3 hectares planted with red grape varieties are located in Laville, on a plot of land called Mahon, lending its name to this wine.

In keeping with Médoc tradition, the vineyards are mainly planted with their traditional variety, Cabernet Sauvignon. This variety is ideally suited to the type of terroir in Cissac, where its strength and aromas can realise their full potential.

The vineyards are cultivated in accordance with sustainable methods, with cover crops inserted between the vines to enhance soil health, capture surplus rainwater, and enhance biological diversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes were selected and harvested at night to maintain optimal freshness at the winery.

The winery began as a consortium of associated grape growers in 1950, with a dedicated winery at Ravina di Trento built in 1964. Today it unites 11 separate cellars and their combined 5,250 grape growers across 6,350 hectares of vineyard, to produce an impressively broad portfolio from an intriguing palette of indigenous and international grape varieties. Trentino has a much higher proportion of wines produced as DOC than any other region in Italy - an average of 80% of the region's wines have a DOC classification, compared to around 30% elsewhere in the country. Remarkably, Cavit accounts for 60% of this region's wine production and they advise and supervise all aspects of this production from the vineyard to the bottle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTheir site at Maso Toresella on the shores of Lake Toblino was the historic residence of the Prince Bishops of Trento, surrounded by 6.5 hectares of vineyard. It is one of the most significant 'masi' (rural estates) in the whole of Trentino. They have worked with the San Michele all’Adige Oenological Institute, since 1988, to develop wines of the highest quality. In 1993 Cantina Altemasi was established, also at Ravina, not far from the region's capital of Trento - for the production and maturation of Classic Trentodoc and Charmat Method sparkling wines. Trento Doc was the first Classical Method sparkling wine DOC to be established anywhere in the world after Champagne, and the first in Italy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard and Winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Valle dei Laghi is wedged between mountains at the foot of the Dolomites, to the north of Lake Garda. The climate is sub-Mediterranean. The Gewurztraminer grape prefers soils which are well-structured, loose and not lime-rich. It is not very productive, but in the right site gives consistently excellent quality. Yields are maintained at around 80- 90 tonnes per hectare. Bunches are small, compact, winged and when ripe have an intense pink colour. The grapes are hand-harvested, carefully selected, destalked and crushed. The must remains in contact with the skins for a short time at 5-6 degrees C to allow aromas to be extracted. The grapes are soft-pressed to prevent colour extraction from the skins - which are a copper colour when ripe. After fermentation in stainless steel, the wine is left in tank for 4-5 months before bottling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12162841182302,"sku":"","price":15.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/3537\/2571\/files\/CED13F70-87F9-4FFF-B086-0F0A5A9F919E.jpg?v=1778770840"},{"product_id":"i-frati-lugana","title":"Cà dei Frati 'I Frati' Lugana","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eTurbiana\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eDry,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/white-wine\" title=\"View our Full Collection of White Wines\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/white-wine\"\u003eWhite\u003c\/a\u003e, Light Bodied, Fresh, Floral, Fresh, Crisp, Salinity, Food Friendly\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca title=\"View more Italian Products\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/italy\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/italy\"\u003eItaly\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eLugana, Lombardy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e75cl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e13%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDietary\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Cà dei Frati 'I Frati' Lugana is an exquisite white wine with sophisticated notes of white flowers, apricot, almond, minerals, salinity, spices, balsamic, and candied fruit.

Most producers in the zone overcrop and train the vines high. At Cà dei Frati the vines, which are between 10 and 35 years old, are trained low on single or double Guyot systems. The newer vineyards have a higher density of planting and yields are well below the average for the zone. In Lugana, Turbiana is grown on the glacial soils just to the south of Lake Garda. The warmer days give wines with more weight and intensity than those from 60 kilometres to the east.

The vines are grown on the VSP trellis system to give optimal cropping to gain maximum flavour during the growing season. Grapes are picked and immediately pressed to tanks for clarification. The fruit was gently pressed, cold settled, racked and cool fermented with selected yeast strains to enhance the unique aromatics \u0026amp; flavours.

A portion of the juice was allowed to undergo spontaneous indigenous yeast fermentation in old oak barrels. All vineyard batches were left on lees and kept separate until late June, when the blend was assembled.

Soils are of decomposed granite origin with fine sandy loam topsoil on a stony base helping with both drainage and moisture retention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe viticulturalists at Waterkloof pride themselves in not spraying any chemical herbicides or pesticides in their vineyards.  They produce their own compost and preparations for the health of the soils, which are distributed by draught horses, instead of heavy tractors.  These practices ensure loose soil with more life, where the vines can spread their roots as they please; taking up everything they need from our rich and complex earth. Their regenerative farming helps to produce honest, terroir-driven wines that are truly crafted in the vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are harvested according to taste and the winemaker spends a lot of time in the vineyards to see how the flavours develop.  Upon arrival at the winery the grapes were destemmed, hand sorted and poured into open-top wooden fermenters.

The skins were separated from the juice via gravity flow and gently pressed in a basket press.  The wine went through malolactic fermentation in barrel and was then aged in new (20%), second and third fill (80%) French barrels for 28 months.  The wine is unfined so that the grapes are honestly and purely expressed in the wine.  Only limited, essential quantities of sulphur were added.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12168803319902,"sku":"","price":16.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/3537\/2571\/files\/134DE72A-E3AB-4394-AD54-FC55ADCFE773.jpg?v=1778770883"},{"product_id":"circumstance-merlot","title":"Waterkloof, Circumstance Merlot, Stellenbosch","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eMerlot\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eDry,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/red-wine\" title=\"View our Full Collection of Red Wines\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/red-wine\"\u003eRed\u003c\/a\u003e, Medium Bodied, Black Fruit, Spice, Oak Aging\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/south-africa\" title=\"View other products from South Africa\"\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003eStellenbosch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e75cl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e14%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDietary\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-mce-selected=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/vegetarian-wines\" title=\"View other Products Suitable for Vegetarians\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/vegetarian-wines\"\u003eVegetarian\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/vegan-wines\" title=\"View other products suitable for Vegans\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/vegan-wines\"\u003eVegan\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"Discover our Sustainably Made Wines\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/sustainably-made-wines\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/sustainably-made-wines\"\u003eSustainable\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/organic-wines\" title=\"View other Organically Farmed and Practising Organic Wines\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/organic-wines\"\u003eOrganic\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperience the elegance of Stellenbosch in this Circumstance Merlot!

The Merlot is from two adjoining, windswept, south-facing (less sun exposure) blocks 240-260m above and a mere 2 miles from The Atlantic. These factors combine to produce low yields, balanced grapes and wines with a true sense of place. Production was a miserly 5 tons per hectare. Hand picked grapes were destemmed, hand sorted and placed into our open-top wooden fermenters via gravity. Natural fermentation started spontaneously by utilising the wild yeasts present on the fruit. Punch downs (twice a day) were used during fermentation to ensure a soft and slow, colour and tannin extraction. The wine spent 30 days on the skins to help integrate the tannins and stabilise the colour. The skins were separated from the juice through a gentle basket pressing. The wine went through malolactic fermentation in barrel and was then aged in new (15%), second and third fill French barrels for 18 months. The wine was aged for another year in wooden fermenters to ensure a wine with silky soft tannins. No fining and only sulphur added with no other additions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12168807972958,"sku":"","price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/3537\/2571\/files\/79D60978-C578-4F17-82E8-EA452B188D78.jpg?v=1778770885"},{"product_id":"primordial-soup-red-blend","title":"Primordial, Cape Red","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePinotage, Red Blend\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDry,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"View our Full Collection of Red Wines\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/red-wine\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eRed\u003c\/a\u003e, Medium Bodied, Red Fruit, Summer Fruit, Juicy,\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/south-africa\" title=\"View other products from South Africa\"\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eW.O.

The windswept vineyard blocks are all, south facing (less sun exposure), 200-350m above sea-level and a mere 2 miles from The Atlantic. These factors combine to produce low yields, balanced grapes and wines with a true sense of place. Production is a miserly 4 tons per hectare. Bunches are picked early in the mornings, when they are still cool, which helps to preserve the flavours. Extracting juice from the grapes is achieved through whole-bunch pressing in our modern basket press. This is the most delicate way to extract the juice. No additions of enzymes or settling agents were made to the juice. After a settling period of 24 hours, a large proportion of the juice was destined for co-fermentation. We determined a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc prior to fermentation which went into old 600-liter barrels where it fermented for four months. After the fermentation was completed the blend was racked to a stainless-steel tank to which they added the rest of the Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc and Semillon. To have the varietals integrate the wine was left in barrel on the fine lees until its bottling date six months later. This helped to add more complexity and weight to the palate. The wine is produced as naturally as possible, with no additions of acids or enzymes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12169034989662,"sku":"","price":14.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0002\/3537\/2571\/files\/D0BFE9CE-3090-4449-9D90-48679688F743.jpg?v=1778770895"},{"product_id":"false-bay-crystalline-chardonnay","title":"False Bay Crystalline Chardonnay","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca title=\"View other Wines made from Chardonnay\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/chardonnay\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDry,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"View our Full Collection of White Wines\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/white-wine\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWhite\u003c\/a\u003e, Light Bodied, Minerality, Textured, Fruit Forward, Unoaked\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/south-africa\" title=\"View other products from South Africa\"\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWine of Origin Coastal Region\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75cl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDietary\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"View other Products Suitable for Vegetarians\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/vegetarian-wines\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVegetarian\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/vegan-wines\" title=\"View other products suitable for Vegans\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVegan\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"Discover our Sustainably Made Wines\" href=\"https:\/\/aitkenwines.com\/collections\/sustainably-made-wines\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSustainable\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFalse Bay Crystalline Chardonnay is a serious, unoaked white from WO Coastal Region.

Old vines are key to making stand-out chenin and although The Swartland is not as coastal as most of the vineyards used for the False Bay wines, it is an area where, quite frankly, grapes from old vines are available at the required prices. Thankfully, the area's old vines produce naturally low yields and retain good acidity despite being warmer and less windswept than Stellenbosch, so cooler, coastal Atlantic winds are less of a necessity for these gnarly old vines.
