This vintage-specific white wine serves as the estate’s vibrant introduction to their signature cool-climate style, sourced from younger, high-quality vineyards. Zesty lemon, white peach, and a profound granitic minerality dominate the focused, pristine bouquet.
The palate is intensely taut and chiselled, perfectly balanced by a subtle richness and well-integrated oak influence. The meticulous winemaking process includes natural fermentation and partial malolactic conversion, giving the wine great texture. This highly-rated Chardonnay promises exceptional aging potential and is ready to enjoy now for its vibrant freshness.
