Beeslaar Chardonnay 2023

Western Cape, South AfricaFormer Kanonkop winemaker Abrie Beeslaar is going mainstream with his side hustle, releasing a 2023 Stellenbosch-based chardonnay grown over a mix of shale and granitic soils at high altitude. The style is elegant from its 13 percent alcohol content to its ultra-creamy texture. The nose is an enticing mix of yellow fruits and honeysuckle, with a citrus-mineral underscore. The palate is soft with ripe pineapple. Drink or hold through 2027. Definitely New World.Tasted: 04 November 2025Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
