Idun is a small boutique winery that is managed by a French-Danish family who found their way to South Africa by way of Mauritius. The valley is a quick one-hour drive from Cape Town, and is surrounded by lush forests, orchards and flora, The valley’s wines are truly something else, made from grapes that ripen slowly because of Elgin’s fertile soil, elevation (350 m above sea level) and cool Mediterranean climate. The result is world-famous ‘cool climate’ wines that are delicate, elegant and age beautifully due to their higher acidity.

Renaissance Chardonnay is pale gold, with a nose full of stewed fruits and zesty lime. The palate is full and rich yet with elegance and restraint, and the finish is well-balanced and lingering.

The ultimate example of a cool climate Chardonnay made from hand-picked grapes that are pressed in whole bunches. Spontaneous fermentation occurs with indigenous yeasts and a portion of the wines undergoes malolactic fermentation to produce balnce and complexity.
