Production Notes

Description

Ripe peach and nectarines, creamy mid palate texture, crisp finish.

Made in the Burgundian style from our best parcels of chardonnay fruit. Barrel fermentation in French oak puncheons with weekly stirring of the yeast less provides a wine of complexity and significant aging potential.

Winemaker Notes

The fruit was harvested in mid-February and barrel fermented in a mix of new and old French oak puncheons 500L capacity. The wine then spent a further nine months in barrel with regular lees stirring to enhance the texture and mouth feel.

Tasting Notes

Ripe Chardonnay fruit coats the palate with flavours of peach and nectarine, with a creamy mid palate texture from barrel fermentation and lees contact, leading to a lengthy yet balanced finish.

Cellaring & Serving Suggestions

Cellaring: This wine is perfectly integrated for enjoyment now or reward yourself with further cellaring and enjoy in 5 to 8 years.

Serving Suggestions: Chardonnay is enjoying a resurgence at present and this wine is sure to please! The perfect pairing for a creamy chicken spaghettini, garlic butter baked salmon or roast pork loin with cauliflower puree.
