Tasting Notes

Aroma

White nectarine, grapefruit, almond meal, white flowers and a touch of vanilla.

Palate

Exhibiting elegance and power, this Corduroy is fine boned with pithy grapefruit, melon and brioche showing in a fleshy palate. A touch of classy vanillan and bacon oak adds complexity and structure. Long and fine finish with citrus acid and lingering fruit drive.

Vinification

After chilling in a cold room overnight we press the whole bunches of chardonnay direct to barrel: no clarifying, no acid addd, no added yeast. The wild ferment kicks off in mostly puncheons plus a couple of smaller barrels (30% new French oak) and takes approx. 2-3 weeks. After 10 months on fermentation lees (without sulphur dioxide) in oak the wine is assembled and was bottled in January 2023.

Vintage Notes

The 2022 vintage started with a cool, dry Winter followed by a wet Spring which slowed down the growth and berry development. Summer was dry, benign and a hot spell during January led to picking in February.
