This is the seventeenth vintage of our Chardonnay. The wine is made from six different vineyards. As with previous vintages, the wine shows an elegant minerality with lime-citrus, sourdough and cinnamon flavours. The tight minerality keeps a wonderful acid grip on the palate showing good aging potential. A floral note of wild, white flowers such as frangipani and almond blossom is obvious on the front of the nose and follows through the palate.

Staggered picks of 6 blocks in 24 (91 pts) ensure rich flavor spectrum: white pear, brioche, nougat, while retaining vibrant acidity & poise. Part natural ferment in mostly older barrels, plus partial malo add to both freshness & creaminess. As delicious & inviting as previous.
Barrel fermented with partial pure yeast strain inoculation and some with natural yeasts. A 30 % portion was allowed to go through malolactic fermentation. The wine was stirred twice during “elevage” in barrel to create a creamy, harmonious blend between wood and grape flavours. Fined with bentonite and vegecol making this wine vegan-friendly Crossflow filtered and bottled under screwcap to ensure quality.
