Vrede Chardonnay – or Peace Chardonnay – hails from a northeast-facing slope in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley with low-vigour, stony, clay-rich Bokkeveld shale soil.

The 2023 vintage delivered beautiful, pure, generously textured wines, a standout Chardonnay vintage for sure.​

“A wine of tension and concentration. Lemongrass, basil stem, lime and concentrated white stone fruit flavours. Absolutely world class.” – Corlien’s notes
