MAN Chardonnay “Padstal” 2022, Cape Coast

Discover a delightful expression of unoaked Chardonnay from South Africa’s Cape Coast. MAN’s “Padstal” is a clean expression of Chardonnay that is impressively well-balanced for its humble price. Enjoy aromas and flavors of apples and lemon with a richer, waxy undertone. It is crisp, fresh, and dry, with a medium body. MAN Family Wines, named for the founders’ wives (Marie, Anette, and Nicky), crafts wines that showcase the region’s terroir with precision and charm. Their “Padstal” range, meaning “road stall” in Afrikaans, pays homage to the region’s farm stands where locals sell fresh produce. The dry-farmed Chardonnay fermented in stainless steel before 15% of the wine matured in American and French oak for 3 months. This component adds creaminess and complexity to the zippier 85% that rested in tank without malolactic fermentation. This is an exceptional value that will please even the most discerning palates. Pair this versatile Chardonnay with grilled seafood or herb-roasted chicken for an elevated dining experience.
