Quite a heavy weight chardy in comparison to other wines I have bought on the site. Very woody, but also smooth and quite buttery. A serious wine to be drunk with intense conversation!

I am more and more impressed with wines from South Africa and in particular from the stellenbosch
region. The STERHUIS 2007 Chardonnay is wonderful, rich, fruity, creamy, oaky and definitely O.K.

Meet the Winemaker

Johan Kruger

"I do not consider winemaking to be a job, it's a way of life. I feel really fortunate to be involved in this wonderful industry. Oh, and it's great that I don't have to wear a tie, in fact, I don't even own one! My father bought our farm in 1980 and I started working the vines with him in 1998. One the bug hit me I couldn't resist making our own wines. Following our first vintage of Chardonnay, I was awarded a Young Wine Maker of the year award, as well as 4.5 stars in Platter and Wine Magazine. I work very closely with my Dad. He's very proud of what we do with the grapes and neither of us would change what we do for the world."
