2022 Chardonnay
2022 CHARDONNAY
WINE SPECS
Our 2022 Chardonnay is a blend of four micro-harvests picked over 2 weeks to capture specific attributes in the fruit. 85% was aged 6 months in French oak, 45% new and 55% old. The last harvest of 15% was aged in stainless steel. 23% of the wine underwent malolactic fermentation.
This process embraces the beautiful bright acidity while building mouthfeel, complexity and aromatics. Aromas of fresh citrus, stone fruit and melon with notes of brioche and sea salt. The palate is dry with mouth-watering acidity and builds on the aromas with further flavours of tropical fruit and pronounced minerality. Full on the palate with a long, fresh finish.

REVIEWS & AWARDS
92 Points - John Schreiner - "This is a seductively pretty fruit-forward Chardonnay. The aromas and the flavours of the wine are fresh and bursting with peach, lime and tropical fruits. The finish is long."
