Description:
Appearance
Light straw with a green edge

Bouquet
Complex nutty mineral chardonnay aroma

Palate
Tight lean citrus like fruit with hazelnut undertones. Terrific length, flavour and texture.

Vintage Conditions
The 2007-2008 growing season was warm and dry. Cooler conditions with some rain closer to harvest gave some lovely humid conditions ideal for Chardonnay.

Winemaking
Fruit is selected from 4 distinct estate vineyards. The grapes are hand picked and whole bunch crushed and pressed to extract some good phenolics for texture and minerality. The juice is allowed to ferment naturally in older French oak casks. Lees are stirred regularly until spring. Fermentation and maturation in older French oak casks.

Cellaring
The wine will continue to develop complexity and interest with good cellaring for up to 5-8 years.
