2019 Dalrymple Cave Block Chardonnay, Tasmania

The fruit was handpicked before whole bunch pressing, and then placed into a mix of new and old French oak barriques and puncheons for 11 months. Winemaking included a parcel of wild fermentation, light lees contact and partial malolactic fermentation.

White floral aromas mingle with early season peach, honeysuckle, lime zest and fresh ginger complemented by hints of brioche and pine nuts. Fine natural acidity defines the Cave Block Chardonnay and accentuates the flavours of lifted white peach and ginger marmalade. Hints of flint and spice add an extra complexity as they combine with the fine texture and acidity, providing a deliciously fresh, lingering finish.
