{"product_id":"2025-lanzerac-mrs-english-chardonnay","title":"2025 Lanzerac Mrs English Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eElizabeth Katherina English bought the farm Schoongezicht in 1920 for £18 000, subsequently renamed the farm ‘Lanzerac’ and transformed it during her nine years of ownership into one of the most modern wineries in the Cape. This wine is a tribute to this formidable lady.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from a single vineyard in the Jonkershoek Valley, the Mrs English 2025 is a complex wine with an abundance of citrus flavours on the nose, a full palate and lingering aftertaste. Great care is taken during the blending process to ensure a wine with impeccable balance, character, poise and deliverance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhole bunches are gently crushed without destemming, then settled for 48 hours. The clarified must is racked into French oak barrels (40% new) inoculated with diverse yeast strains; one-third ferments naturally. After sulphuring, the wine matures for 12 months with weekly stirring to build weight and nuance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eTasting Note:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe 2024 Mrs. English opens with bright lemon zest and white peach aromas, followed by notes of toasted almond and vanilla.
