2018 | Alvi's Drift | Limited Release Albertus Viljoen Chardonnay

The wine has a light and brilliant straw colour. The complex nose is dominated by nectarine and peach fruit with well-integrated toasty oak characters. The palate is rich and creamy with a viscous mouthfeel. Aromas of roasted cashew nuts and vanilla pods tease the senses.

Producer Information

Alvi’s Drift wine is produced at the family owned Alvi’s Drift Private Cellar. Situated on the banks of the Breede River in the Western Cape of South Africa, it has been owned and operated by the van der Merwe family since 1928. The founder of the business was Albertus Viljoen (Alvi to his friends) van der Merwe. After Alvi build a ford across the Breede River to allow better access to the family business, locals started to call the ford “Alvi’s Drift”. This ford now gives it names to one of South Africa’s newest and most exciting wine labels.
