Natalie's Score: 88/100

Le Bonheur 2020 Chardonnay from the Western Cape wine region is dry, medium-plus-bodied and bright with lime-lemon zest, ripe apple, pear flavours and finishing on a mineral note. Nicely balanced and excellent value under $16. This winery dates back to the 1700s when the original owners, the French Huguenot De Villiers family, named the winery "Le Bonheur," which translates to "happiness."

Chardonnay food pairings: roast chicken, pan-fried pan fish, sauteed halibut steaks.
