Sweet fruit flavours with an elegant finish
Sweet fruit flavours with an elegant finish
Description
- Toasty oak
- Stonefruit
- Subtle spice
- Elegant finish
This beautiful pale-gold Chardonnay has aromas of stone fruits and citrus with subtle spice and toasty oak. The palate is textural, with good grip. It has nice minerality and sweet fruits flavours, which help give it an elegant finish. Enjoy now, or cellar up to 2 years.
The 2021 growing season in Hawke's Bay was of exceptional quality; warm Spring temperatures, brought forward flowering, but also meant for smaller crops. With very little disease pressure and with the weather continuing to remain favourable through March the fruit was able to be picked at optimal ripeness.
The fruit was picked at ideal ripeness and gently pressed. The juice was settled and racked off solids then fermented with a range of vessels, temperatures and yeast strains to give complexity of aroma and mouth feel. After aging on yeast lees with regular stirring, the batches were racked, blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling.
Food Pairing: Beautifully matched with roast chicken, fish and chips and oysters.
Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and a gluten free diet.
