Profile:
The colour is light yellow with a tinge of green. On the nose, a touch of vanilla with nectarine and ginger. On the palate, the wine has a hint of oak with a fresh acidity and long lingering minerality on the finish.
What’s In It: 100% Chardonnay
How It Was Made:
The grapes are hand harvested at 23 balling and delivered in small lug boxes to the cellar. The grapes are whole bunch pressed, fermented in tank with a small portion fermented in barrel. After fermentation the wine is racked into French, Hungarian and American oak barrels and then matured for 14 months. The wine did not undergo malolactic fermentation to keep its freshness and primary fruit. The wine was not protein stabilised, cold stabilised or filtered.
