From a BioGro Certified organic vineyard, this single-vineyard wine sees the benefits of the adoption of organic and regenerative viticultural practices, both environmentally and qualitatively.
This Chardonnay was whole bunch pressed to stainless steel tank before being transferred to 500L oak barrels for natural fermentation and maturation on lees.
How's it taste? This is serious. Seductively creamy, flinty with nutty nuances. Generous white-fleshed nectarines, almond meal and nougat fold into one another with a delicate melted butter presence. A slash of custard tucks in behind a lick of vanilla that just purrs. A slight minerally presence is a nod to these wonderful Central Otago soils. Chardonnay glory all the way.
