About

”This is one of our iconic Première Range wines with a long and illustrious history. It is named after the Argentinian Broodmare, Luna de Miel, (translates as “honeymoon” in Spanish) who graced Avontuur Thoroughbred Stud for 18 years. A Chardonnay for the Chardonnay lover.” Winemaker - Jan van Rooyen

Product Features

• Aroma: Orange peel nuances delightfully combine with subtle ginger spice notes. This adds an interesting minerality on the nose. A hint of buttery Melba toast shows the barrel influence.
• Flavour:  Full-bodied and mellow with a lingering aftertaste. Citrus peel, nectarines and spice follow-through from the nose with classic minerality providing the backbone. Well balanced acidity, whiffs of vanilla and deciduous fruit make this winea  complex tasting experience.
• Serving suggestion:  This ultimate food wine will compliment Malay curries, freshly grilled fish and langoustines.
• Single vineyard selection from vines on a south-west facing slope mid-way up the Helderberg.
