Video Description: Miko Chardonnay is produced in honour of the late Mr. Miko Rwayitare, for whom barrel fermented Chardonnay was always a favourite. Miko Chardonnay is only produced in exceptional vintages, ensuring that the best wine possible is bottled in Miko's memory. Minimal intervention in the cellar ensures that all Miko wines are the ultimate expression of Mont Rochelle terroir
2009 was an outstanding vintage, quite possible one of South Africa's best. Unseasonably cool weather in December and January, with one of the driest summers in many years, meant longer ripening season producing white wines that boast luscious, full-bodied character with remarkable fruit complexity and age-ability
Harvested in the cool of the morning, the grapes were carefully selected in the vineyard before a gentle crushing and pressing in the cellar. A co-fermentation of commercial yeast with one third of the juice separately undergoing natural fermentation, resulted in a complex aroma and flavour profile
