Our Chardonnay is 100% barrel fermented in french oak with 25-30% of this being new oak. To add complexity to the wine all of it goes through natural yeast fermentation, as well all of it goes through complete malo-lactic fermentation. This wine received extended lees contact for ten months with weekly stirring. Then a further eight months barrel maturation. The longer time in barrel restricts this wines openness for a few months so be patient. Minimal handling and filtration ensures maximum flavour is retained.

The nose of the 2023 Chardonnay shows subtle hints of honeydew melon and white peach with a touch of oatmeal. These follow through to the palate, combining with integrated oak, balanced acid and mineral undertones. This wine has richness with anticipation and is multi-faceted creating a satisfying finish.
