Lucas van Loggerenberg has carved out a place as one of South Africa’s most distinctive voices in winemaking. Known for precision and restraint, he focuses on vineyard character and purity of fruit, working with minimal intervention to craft wines that are bright, detailed, and full of energy.
His Break a Leg Chardonnay is sourced from cooler sites and handled with a light touch, it was naturally fermented and aged in a mix of stainless steel and older oak to preserve freshness. The nose shows citrus blossom, green apple, and a hint of struck flint, while the palate is taut and focused, balancing crisp acidity with subtle creaminess from time on lees. A Chardonnay that leans on clarity and finesse rather than weight, it’s lively, elegant, and full of precision.
