A masterful celebration of Chardonnay from former SA ‘Winemaker of the Year’ Bruce Jack. He travelled the world perfecting his skills before he created his own cutting edge cellar in Stellenbosch. It shows in this ultra fresh characterful white.

The Wine
One of the most enthusiastic winemakers you’ll ever meet, Bruce Jack studied his craft at South Australia’s famous Roseworthy College, then perfected his skills at iconic Aussie wineries Grant Burge and Simon Hackett and also in Bordeaux. He has a real passion that shines through in every wine he makes. His cellar, based in a former dynamite factory just 400 metres from the ocean, scooped ‘Winery of the Year’ in 2008. It’s designed so all liquid is moved by gravity – eco-friendly and gentle on the wine. Speaking of which, occasionally Bruce can be heard having a quiet word with his vats of Chardonnay to encourage their fermentation.
