This Chardonnay was blended from a selection of the best wines from the ultra-ripe harvest.  From the start, our aim was to produce a Chardonnay with intense fruit flavour and real character utilising quality grapes.

All fruit was harvested in the early hours and the juice pressed while the grapes were still cool to help retain aroma and flavour.  The wine was tank fermented with an element of quercus fragmentus which added greater weight and complexity.

The wine shows classic ripe, rich butter and tropical fruit on the nose and soft, well integrated vanilla on the palate.

The Painted Wolf is also known as the African Wild Dog or Painted Dog - a highly social animal, each with its own ornate markings.  The den is at the heart of the pack, a place where Painted Wolves relax and bond.  

The Den Sauvignon Blanc is zippy, grassy and fresh - a social wine to enjoy with family, friends and good food.

As you "paint your palate" with this wine, you are making a contribution to the conservation of this rare and endangered animal.

A fresh fruity Rosé with raspberry and strawberry flavours and a hint of boiled sweets.  Serve well chilled as a drink on its own or in a long glass over crushed ice.
