Unlike oaked Chardonnay styles that emphasise butter and heavy oak, San Felipe Classic Chardonnay focuses on fresh fruit, light texture and drinkability, making it more approachable. Its smooth profile makes it a strong option for those exploring white wine in Kenya, particularly buyers looking for a refreshing and accessible style.
Tasting Notes
The nose is fresh and inviting, opening with pineapple, ripe pear and green apple, layered with lemon zest and white peach. Subtle hints of melon and citrus blossom add brightness and lift.
On the palate, the wine is smooth and rounded, with ripe orchard and tropical fruit at the core. The mid-palate shows a gentle, supple texture where soft acidity supports the fruit, creating a balanced and approachable profile.
The finish is clean and lightly persistent, marked by lingering citrus, pear and a soft mineral note, leaving a refreshing and easy impression.
Food Pairing
This Chardonnay pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, seafood, salads and light pasta dishes, where its smooth texture complements delicate flavours. It also works well with vegetarian dishes and soft cheeses, making it versatile across cuisines. It is a great choice for brunches, casual dinners, picnics and relaxed gatherings, offering an easy-drinking option for warm Nairobi days.

Description
A fresh Chardonnay with citrus, tropical fruit and soft texture. San Felipe Classic 2024 is smooth, vibrant and easy to enjoy.
Mendoza’s high-altitude vineyards, often above 900 metres, allow Chardonnay grapes to retain acidity while developing ripe fruit flavours. This results in a wine that balances freshness with soft texture. For those looking to buy white wine in Nairobi, this is an ideal choice for brunches, casual dinners and outdoor gatherings. It is best suited for beginners and wine lovers seeking a smooth, easy-drinking Chardonnay.
