Reserve Chardonnay 2020

$42.00

Tasting Notes

Handpicked from our original Chardonnay planting in 1983. Minimal intervention with a very light pressing and free run juice was put straight to a 500L French oak puncheon. The wine underwent a cool, wild ferment and full malolactic fermentation in the barrel.

The wine shows an attractive green-gold colour and subtle aromas of beehive, honeydew and lime.

Exceptional acidity balances the palate and its flavours of lemon, peach and musk.

Our aim is for the wine to express our unique terroir to stand out in its utmost purity.
