The finer details
11.5% ABV.
Sourced from a single harvest of Chardonnay, this wine was hand picked, direct pressed and fermented with indigenous yeast. Half was matured for nine months in Burgundy oak barrel, the remainder in stainless steel, before blending shortly before bottling. The élevage brings depth and texture without overshadowing the fruit. Notes of lemon zest, citrus blossom and sherbet are framed by delicate hints of vanilla and sweet spice, while a bright line of acidity carries the wine to a long, elegant finish. Fresh yet composed, it is a Chardonnay that speaks more of balance and texture than power.
Bottled without additions, sulphites, fining or filtration.
Best served lightly chilled.
