PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Longridge is one of the leading wine estates in the heart of the Cape Winelands near Stellenbosch. Organic viticulture methods are utilized to the fullest in Longridge's vineyards in an effort to produce excellent quality wines with minimal environmental impact. Head winemaker Jasper Raats says their philosophy is simple: "We want to make enjoyable wines, which are healthy to drink and of a world-class standard."*

Organic practices are followed and therefore no herbicides or chemical sprays are used in the vineyards. A minimum interference approach is taken in order to get a true reflection of the unique terroir.*

Predominantly unwooded Chardonnay is blended with a small amount of lightly wooded Pinot Noir from the Elgin. Both varieties are whole bunched pressed and allowed native yeast fermentation. Pinot Noir is transferred to aged wooden barrels, while the Chardonnay stays in tanks in order to mature on the lees for 9 weeks before being blended.*

This is a fresh wine, bursting with aromas of ripe guava, pineapple, and kiwi. Bright citrus and kumquat bring you to an ending that is well-balanced and lingering.
