Description

Select parcels of our Chardonnay were harversted in the early hours of morning and whole-cluster pressed straight to ferment in French Oak, with all natural solids retained and incorporated so as to harness and fully express the aroma, texture and structural characteristics of the fruit. After long cool fermentation the wine was aged for 8 months on French Oak and light lees, with fortnightly battonage adding to the inherent textural weight and palate concentration. After aging, the wine was carefully blended, lightly fined and filtered before bottling. This is a beautifully rich vintage for Chardonnay where the wine is developing early but will integrate and become deeper with time.
Natural acidity and pure fruit tannins deliver flavours of stone fruit, shaved almonds, and lemon zest, with an utterly mineral finish of apricots, lime juice and plum, and subtle tones of creamy French oak.
