The Capensis winery, owned by the Jackson family since 2014, owes its name to the Latin translation of the definition "from the Cape". This is one of the most important Chardonnay producers in all of South Africa, and its vineyards extend over nearly 20 acres on the granite and arenaceous soils of the best sites in the Stellenbosch, Overberg, and Robertson regions.
Chardonnay Capensis is produced in the Western Cape wine region of South Africa. The grapes selected by the winemaker Graham Weerts and by Rosa Kruger, a world-famous vineyard director, come from the best vineyards that Western Cape has to offer for this grape variety. Capensis Chardonnay ages for ten months in French oak.
This wine is fragrant and fresh and shows an elegant aromatic profile with scents of citrus, tropical fruit, and vanilla, combined with floral notes. The lemon flavors reappear on the palate and are wonderfully balanced by a nice acidity and a slight saline note. Its rich texture gives it an exceptional mouthfeel and makes it an excellent partner to first courses with seafood, but also fish or poultry served with white sauces. The finish is long and persistent.

Capensis Chardonnay 2018
overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
