Vondeling, meaning 'foundling', lies on the slopes of the unspoilt and undiscovered Paardeberg mountain, approximately 45 minutes' drive from Cape Town. It was granted to Swedish immigrant Oloff Bergh in 1704, and a three-centuries-old winemaking tradition began. Today, an environmentally sensitive approach to farming and minimal intervention during the winemaking process ensure wine with a distinct fingerprint of origin.
Vondeling Chardonnay 2019 is a full-bodied and refined South African white wine which is exceptionally well-suited to grilled fish, creamy Alfredo pasta and salads. The freshness of the wine also makes it ideal for mild, aromatic curries.
