This Chardonnay is a blend of small parcels of fruit from a selection of sites in the Piccadilly Valley, with some fruit from the Onkaparinga Valley included. This year’s wine combines parcels from the Udys and Commune of Buttons vineyards in Piccadilly and Kas Sluiter Vineyard in Onkaparinga.

The fruit was picked by hand in late March and gently pressed to barriques and hogsheads for wild fermentation. Maturation took place over six months on full lees in barrel, followed by three months in tank before release.

“The wine is saline and tightly bound. There is excellent texture and mouthfeel from slow pressing and great focus and minerality from light extraction. The cool, wet conditions for 2023 made for aromatic, pretty Chardonnay wines dominated by ample white pear and citrus characters.” Jasper’s notes
