Pale gold in colour, Lifted varietal notes of white peach and nectarine. Integrated tropical nuances of guava and rockmelon with light pastry and buttery characters. Intense peach and citrus flavours are prevalent on the palate providing rich texture. This is balanced with mouthwatering acidity and subtle hints of oak providing length and structure. This wine has a creamy soft lengthy finish.
Selected fruit parcels were harvested in the cool at night at optimum maturity levels to maintain freshness and flavour. The Chardonnay juice was pressed and clarified immediately after crushing and inoculated with selected yeasts. The wine was then fermented to dryness and then stirred on yeast lees for a period of 3 months to build texture and creaminess. A portion of this wine was also fermented on premium French oak staves and allowed to complete full malo lactic fermentation, this portion was then back blended in to the wine to add complexity and subtle oak influence. The wine then received a light fine before being clarified and stored cold to maintain freshness.
