It has a balanced palate with bright acidity and a creamy texture from oak barrel maturation. The fruit comes from the estate’s vineyards and Stellenbosch Mountain, fermented in a mix of new and neutral barrels. This wine has won gold at the Mundis Vini International Wine Awards.

Terre Paisible – Peaceful Land – is a special place to be discovered at the gateway to the Franschhoek Valley in South Africa.
With awe-inspiring views, the land here is a source of energy and revitalisation – a place to recharge and re-set – where a sense of abundance and peace envelop you.
Here, this synergy with nature is captured in everything we grow and everything we do.
The Terre Paisible Vigne d Or Chardonnay 2022 is a distinctive assemblage of grapes all from their own Franschhoek Valley vineyards, fermented and matured for 9 months in 500 litre neutral French oak barrels. The aromatics offer up expressive notes of white flowers, pickled cucumber, baked Golden Delicious apples, warm custard, and Key Lime pie together with subtle salted caramel and grapefruit confit nuances. On the palate the oaking is sympathetic and beautifully integrated allowing crystalline lemon and lime fruit notes to shine through. The wine has impressive concentration and a focused fruit intensity which is caressed by fresh tangy acids and a delicately pithy mineral finish. This is an exceptionally well-made wine that stylistically marries the best notions of white Burgundy with the opulence of a Californian-styled Sonoma Coast Chardonnay. Drink it on release and over 3 to 5 years.
