LE ROUX EN FOURIE CHARDONNAY WHITE WINE 2012<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

VITICULTURE<\/p>\n

This vine has a yield of 50 hl\/ha, planted on clay soil with limestone deposits. The vineyard is situated at the foot of the majestic Langeberg Mountains resides Le Roux & Fourie Vignerons on Buitenstekloof farm. If you\u2019re looking for distinctiveness, look at the smallish, almost round circles of brighter green vegetation on the slopes where the soil composition sustains a species you will find nowhere else in the world. This is totally unique terroir. There is one such species that is only found on the farm, duly noted by Prof. van Jaarsveld, Cape Town Botanical Gardens (for purposes of plant poaching, the name is left out). It is a combination of perseverance, passion and terroir that compels the Fourie brothers to craft extraordinarily unique wines.<\/p>\n
