Colour: Lemony green. Nose: A bright, lively nose with mineral overtones giving way to stone fruit, light roasted almonds and a waft of lemon meringue. Palate: Eleven months lees contact adds a refined creaminess and complexity, presenting an appealing full mouth and length. Elegant flavours of citrus and white blossom, knit with a minerality, some salinity and complex acidity to provide a long, smooth finish.

Citrus Blossom

hole bunch pressing juice was allowed to rest to clarify before filling 225 litre French oak barrels (30% new barrels, 50% 2nd fill and the balance 3rd fill for fermentation). This Chardonnay was 100% barrel fermented, using natural yeast with extended lees contact and daily batonnage. As a result, the wine delivers a naturally fresh, creamy and crisp palate. Around 30% of this wine underwent malolactic fermentation.
