Description
- Subtle oak
- Ripe nectarine
- Cinnamon spice
- Refreshing finish
Pale straw yellow in colour. Ripe nectarine, fig and nougat aromas with accents of wild honey. These are supported by freshly cut hay and cinnamon spice. Layers of flavour build across the palate reflecting the fruit, natural fermentation and ageing on yeast lees. The slightest hint of oak comes through as cinnamon and spice. Balanced acidity gives the wine a refreshing finish.
It was a cool and wet season, notable for the widespread flooding of the Murray River which has not been seen at such scale since 1956. Despite vintage being delayed by several weeks, the long, cool ripening season allowed the Chardonnay grapes to ripen slowly with exceptional flavour development and well-balanced natural acidity.
The Chardonnay for this wine is sourced from vineyards in South Australia, where our access to the latest clonal and rootstock combinations continues to deliver outstanding fruit. Our winemaking is focused on minimal intervention with the use of wild yeasts, malolactic fermentation, lees contact and subtle oak to give our Chardonnay depth, complexity and personality.
