The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.
With this white wine, Bon Courage demonstrates its worth. What it's capable of. Creating accessible wines that everyone can appreciate. Experience is certainly not lacking. For over 200 years, the Bruwer family, owners of Bon Courage winery, has been crafting successful wines. Originally from France, specifically the Loire Valley, winemaking is in their blood; the Loire is also known for its beautiful wines. Bon Courage has always kept pace with the times. It employs the most modern production methods. Only this way can Bon Courage maintain its high quality year after year.
The Chardonnay is perhaps the most famous white grape in the world. Its strength lies in its versatility; this grape grows exceptionally well all over the world. From bone-dry Spain or Australia to the somewhat cooler Chile or Northern Italy, Chardonnay guarantees top wines everywhere. This is also the case in South Africa. Chardonnay grows optimally in the Bon Courage vineyards. The days are long and rich with many hours of sunshine. However, the grapes for Bon Courage Chardonnay Unwooded enjoy the necessary coolness at night thanks to the presence of the rivers. An excellent microclimate.
As the name suggests, this Bon Courage white wine is unaged, which makes it delightfully refreshing. Tropical notes of ripe guava, melon, lime, and citrus form the foundation of the aroma. You can even detect a hint of vanilla. The flavor of Bon Courage Chardonnay Unwooded is surprisingly smooth on the palate. The ripe flavor palette of citrus and tropical fruit is pleasant and balanced. Bon Courage Chardonnay Unwooded never disappoints. A must-have for an aperitif, a hearty lunch, or a convivial get-together with friends.
