Falconhead Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2021
Description
- Toasty oak
- Grilled pineapple
- Vanilla bean
- Well balanced
Rock melon, grilled pineapple, and vanilla bean aromas. The palate is wonderfully balanced with flavours of ripe orchard fruits and toasty oak. This wine is drinking well now but can be cellared for up to 6 years.
The grapes for this wine were sourced from three of our Hawke’s Bay vineyards – Riverview, Tantallon, and Kinross.
This wine was blended from several batches, some of which were fermented in stainless steel and then transferred to barrel; others were barrel fermented. In each case, the grapes were machine harvested and taken to our Riverview winery in Hawkes Bay where they were pressed, and the juice transferred to barrel or tank and inoculated with a variety of yeasts including D47 and QA23. Following barrel maturation, the wine was tankered to our Katikati site for final finishing and bottling. The wine was bottled in April 2022.
Contains sulphites. Fined using milk products, traces may remain.
