2023 Chardonnay Cru

This rich Chardonnay shows golden apple, lemon oil and white flowers on the nose. The palate is creamy and framed by delicate oak spices, toast and ripe pear. The finish is supported by balancing, bright acidity. Showing incredible poise at this stage and will continue to develop.

Fruit was hand picked and sorted before being whole cluster pressed and fermented and aged in French oak barrels (89%) and stainless steel (11%). Batonnage (lees stirring) was conducted once a week for the first few months to give the wine some weight, texture and complexity. The wine then underwent full malo-lactic fermentation and was left on primary lees before being racked to stainless steel for one month prior to bottling.

Enjoy with your favourite lobster, roast chicken and salmon dishes.
