Hartenberg Eleanor 2018

R555.00

Maturation:

12 months 225L French oak barriques, 50% new, 50% second fill

Tasting note:

Lime-citrus on the nose opens up to pear and hints of stone fruit and white flowers. The palate is roused by a chalky minerality and a crisp orange-peel-like zest. There is a follow through of the ripe pear character balanced with brioche notes and a lingering finish that warrants savouring.

Nestled in a valley on the free-draining, north-eastern slopes of the Bottelary Hills in Stellenbosch, Hartenberg enjoys a Mediterranean climate of warm, dry summers and cold, wet winters.

Their vineyards face north, west, and east, with varietals planted to take advantage of either morning or afternoon sun. There is a difference in altitude of some 250 metres between the northern and southern vineyards.

Hartenberg’s holistic approach encompasses all aspects of the farm, including everyone who lives and works here. The Mackenzie family, owners of the estate since 1986, strive continuously to safeguard Hartenberg and their philosophy to “leave Hartenberg in a better condition than when we started”.
