Gold Medal – Limestone Coast Wine Show 2023

Pale straw with green hue in appearance. This is an elegant chardonnay, with subtle nuances of stone fruits with a fresh citrus overtone. The elegant nature of this Chardonnay continues on the palate, a lovely acid backbone accompanied by subtle flavours of stone fruit with complexity from the wild ferment. The palate is creamy from bâtonnage, the wine lingers the length is medium to long.

Food Matching: This chardonnay would go wonderfully with grilled halloumi, both traditional and vegan, with a splash of lemon.
Cellaring Potential: Drink now to 5 years

This Estate grown chardonnay is pressed straight to oak, which was sequentially filled, giving complexity to the barrel selection process at blending time. The wine is wild fermented, utilising the indigenous yeast found in the vineyard, winery and oak. The wine spent 7 months in 20% new French oak, with the remainder being older oak, bâtonnage every couple of weeks built the palate and added complexity.
