We harvested the fruit at various times throughout the 2021 season. Cool conditions and gradual ripening meant we could have Chardonnay spanning the full spectrum of flavour from citrus to tropical. This wine will age gracefully.
The fruit for this wine was gently crushed and the juice was fermented in stainless steel to maintain primary fruit aromas and flavours. A significant portion of this wine was matured in French oak puncheons which are normally reserved for our finest wines. This wine shows a richness and complexity way beyond its station!
