Oakridge 864 Funder and Diamond Drive Block Chardonnay 2020

 

All that sparkles and glistens. A Chardy party for your insides. Another sublime Oakridge 864 awaits.

I tasted this wearing shorts, a T-shirt and thongs but I felt like I was rocking a three piece suit - such is the class that it harpoons you to another level. 

Hand sorted, whole bunch pressed and fermented in barrel (20% new), it sat on lees for 10 months before another 6 months on lees in tank prior to bottling. 

The grapefruit purity just sizzles as it lights the way for fresh lemons, white fleshed nectarines and almonds. A nutty profile gradually builds revealing cashews alongside delicate creamy vanilla goodness. Although in the presence of greatness, the humility of its swagger boasts of quality. Take a bow.

Drink to eight years+
