Tasting Notes

Palate

Characteristically long palate, fine tight structure and a zesty lemon/ grapefruit finish.

Vinification

100% hand picked. Whole bunch pressed very gently with an early cut due to the unusually high phenolics. The was juice then transferred straight to barrel by gravity with no settling. Indigenous fermentation in 500L French puncheons. No batonage. No malolactic fermentation. Maturation for 10 months in new and used French oak 20% new, 80% older, Taransaud and D&J.

Cellaring Potential

Now - 6 years.

Vintage Notes

The 2020 season was a bit of a rollercoaster, beginning with a very cold winter into a cool wet Spring, a dry and warm December and then a mild February/March punctuated by a few rain events. The cool Spring delivered very low yields across our Chardonnay blocks, primarily driven by tighter, smaller bunches the consequence of which is naturally high acidity and fresh savoury flavours.
