Vinification
The Chardonnay grapes were hand harvested and then very gently whole-bunch pressed for two and a half hours. The temperature of the must was dropped to 12°C before it was transferred to oak barrels without settling for fermentation. The wine was aged for six months in oak without racking or lees stirring. Only 10% new, lightly toasted French oak barrels were used, giving a rounded texture to the finished wine.
Flavour profile
This dry white Chardonnay offers a delightful bouquet of citrus and stone fruits, beautifully complemented by subtle, integrated toasty notes from oak ageing. On the palate, a refreshing acidity carries the well-defined flavours to a lingering finish, showcasing a rounded texture.
