Jancis Robinson writes:  Quite a rich Chardonnay on the nose and then very refreshing on the end before quite a sudden finish. Probably needs a bit more time in bottle.  Jancis Robinson 16/20.

Antony Mueller writes:  Simple aromas of white peach and Asian pear flow out of the glass of the 2022 Chardonnay. Medium-bodied, the palate is fresh and clean, offering classic flavors of yellow apples and citrus blossom before ending with an uncomplicated finish. 20,000 bottles of this Chardonnay were produced from Stellenbosch and Elgin fruit, which were left on the lees for seven months before bottling.  - Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The Aslina Chardonnay is a fruity and complex Chardonnay. Tropical fruits and lime on the nose and on the palate. It is creamy and has a nice level of acidity that balances the fruit and wood flavors perfectly. Super delicious, definitely try it!
