Drink it now or cellar for up to 8 years. No need to decant.

Located in the Western Cape of South Africa, in the Stellenbosch wine region, the Warwick Estate has been owned by the Ratcliffe family since 1964 and released its first harvest in 1984. The estate, which today spans over 40 hectares of vineyards, and also purchases other grapes from the Uitkyk estate vineyard, is particularly famous for its rich and powerful reds, such as the Trilogy Red and the Blue Lady.

The White Lady is a wine produced only with Chardonnay grapes from two sites located in the Helderberg, and one in the Simonsberg. The blend of grapes from the three sites guarantees the perfect balance between freshness, acidity, and structure. The harvest takes place separately per plot and at different stages of maturation. Fermentation takes place in French oak barrels.

The wine has a bright golden-yellow color. On the nose, it reveals a fresh and fruity aromatic profile with citrus notes and some well-integrated vanilla hints. On the palate, it is elegant, lively, fruity, and well-balanced. It has a good body. The finish is long and recalls notes of vanilla. It makes an excellent aperitif, but it is also the ideal wine for grilled fish.
