Village Chardonnay 2020

Beautiful blend of several components of Chardonnay from our Estate. Fermented Foudre oak vats (2500l), older small oak barrels and tank fermented. The small oak barrel component was left to spontaneously ferment. The other two components were inoculated with Burgundian yeast strains. Nurtured for 7 months on the lees and then the blending commenced. The wine was then stabilised and prepared for bottling.

A great expression of a lightly oaked Chardonnay, bursting with citrus and fresh Granny Smith apple notes. Followed by nuances of white peach and complemented with subtle hints of oak. These characteristics follow through onto the palate which reveals natural, fresh and fine acidity, with a lingering finish.
