Description
Notes of ripe nectarine, peach and orange blossom that complement the fine citrus notes
compliment in the Cave Block Chardonnay. The taste is generous and soft, with a mouthfeel of ripe fruit flavours. Matured in French oak. White floral aromas mingle with early season peach, honeysuckle, lime zest and fresh ginger complemented by hints of brioche and pine nuts. Hints of flint and spice add an extra complexity as they combine with the fine texture and acidity providing a deliciously fresh, lingering finish.
Complex and a long fresh finish. The fruit was carefully hand-picked before being blended new and older French oak barriques were pressed. The process included a package of wild fermentation, light contact on the lie and partial malolactic fermentation to naturally adjust acidity for balance and structure.
The Cave Block has free-draining soils and steep slopes ensure the Chardonnay vineyard low yields of intense concentrated fruit.
