Good things come from small parcels located on dramatic Stellenbosch hourglass-shaped slopes that will even give those hardy honey badgers the heebie-jeebies. Hard work and the passage of time are essential ingredients in rendering the Bartinney Hourglass Chardonnay that exudes creaminess balancing on a tightrope before it takes a dive into a pool of rich citrus fruit. Only 700 bottles were vinified, but you may have a brawl with Humble Grape wine geeks or a honey badger to get your hands on the very small allocation that we just imported into the UK.
Tasting notes
A wine with fresh citrus minerality, exuding vibrancy and purity. On the palate, it’s rich and penetrating, with a fine, subtle creaminess that lingers elegantly.
About the winemaker
Established in 1912, Bartinney has been in the Jordaan family since 1953. Now Michael and Rose Jordaan tend to the 28-hectare farm, with a vision to create excellent wines and reawaken the charm of the historic land. And charming is right: perched on the dramatic slopes of Botmaskop alongside the Helshoogte Pass, overlooking the picturesque Banghoek Valley in Stellenbosch.
