Winemakers Notes
Finesse and elegance are our main focus when crafting our old block, ultra low cropping Premium Chardonnay.
Fermented cool in new barrels and aged for ten months, with cultured yeast and wild yeast ferments’ incorporated at a ratio of 50% each, our co wild fermented Chardonnay has eventuated in a unique style to complement lighter food styles.
The complex ‘bouquet’ of this wine reveals a subtle minerality, blending in with fresh Lemon Meringue aromatics followed by discreet charriness of French oak. Through weekly traditional ‘batonnage’- lees stirring – a creamy and layered texture has been achieved on the palate, balanced by the refreshing natural acid on the finish. Malolactic fermentation was minimal
