About

A refined expression of cool-climate Chardonnay, the Newton-Johnson "Southend Chardonnay" Walker Bay 2022 captures the purity and elegance of its coastal terroir. Sourced from meticulously farmed vineyards in South Africa’s renowned Walker Bay region, this Chardonnay reflects a perfect harmony of bright fruit, minerality, and well-integrated oak. The 2022 vintage showcases the estate’s commitment to precision winemaking, delivering a wine of depth, freshness, and finesse.

Tasting notes

The wine opens with delicate aromas of citrus blossom, ripe peach, and lemon curd, accented by subtle hints of toasted almond and wet stone. On the palate, vibrant acidity lifts flavors of green apple, nectarine, and a touch of vanilla, leading to a beautifully textured mid-palate. The finish is long and refined, with lingering notes of saline minerality and a whisper of oak spice.

Pairing

The Newton-Johnson “Southend Chardonnay” pairs wonderfully with grilled seafood, roast chicken, or creamy pasta dishes. Its crisp acidity and layered complexity also make it an excellent match for soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert, enhancing their richness with its bright, citrus-driven character.
