Winemaker Darryl Catlin carefully selects the best parcels of fruit

according to ripeness from the various blocks of Chardonnay that are made up of three French Chardonnay clones. Each clone has its own flavour spectrum that is individual, where

some are picked earlier to obtain citrus characters and other clones are picked later to obtain melon and grapefruit flavours. Once picked, the bunches were sorted and gently pressed,

prior to wild ferment in 100% French oak for 10 months. Barrel selected prior to bottling. This wine displays delicate aromas of citrus blossom and herbal spice. The palate oozes an opulent, mouth-filling mid palate of honeydew melon, white peach and grapefruit. This luscious, complex wine has wonderful acid balanced by an incredible softness.

Savour chilled on its own or enjoy as an accompaniment to chargrilled salmon, alternatively asparagus risotto as a vegetarian option. Drinking beautifully now but will continue to evolve with careful cellaring.
