Tasting Notes
Palate
Just like they used to make em’. Our Fat Bastard
Chardonnay has an opulent, rich palate of grilled
pineapple, spiced butterscotch and loaded with peach and
apricot, all wrapped in a lush, buttery texture. Filled with
macadamia and almond meal notes for depth and balance,
the wine has a bright linear acid line, making it a fresh and
lively delight. Full bodied goodness.
Vinification
Harvested during the cool of the night. Cold and slow
fermentation with aromatic yeast to retain freshness in
stainless steel. Matured in both American and French oak.
Bottled under screwcap to retain freshness.
Vintage Notes
2022 was marked by a warm growing season, leading
to earlier harvests and concentrated fruit flavours.
Despite challenging heat waves, chardonnay showcased a
remarkable balance of rich texture with bright acidity and
layered flavours.
Food Matching
Our favourite pairing; gnocchi with sage burnt butter.
Whilst most deem the butter on butter mix could clash,
the high acid of the Chardonnay provides a refreshing
take. Perfect.
