Ripe stone fruit aromas of peach and white fleshed nectarine, with notes of vanilla and a hint of melted butter.

Finishing with nougat and vanilla balanced with fine oak and good acidity with a lingering citrus after taste.
Trays with whole bunches are placed in the winery coolroom for overnight chilling. A long slow gentle press cycle is used and pressing can take up to 3 hours. Free run juice is put straight to barrel for fermentation. The wines are lees stirred after ferment, and the wine remains sur lee until final blending. About 50% underwent malo-lactic fermentation with total time in barrel of 12 months.
Grapes for the Paritua Chardonnay were sourced from their Paritua Vineyard block, adjacent to the winery. Selected rows of clone 15 were hand leaf plucked and bunch thinned and harvested by hand.
