Chardonnay fruit sourced from Ghost Rock (23%), Tolpuddle (30%) and Clover Hill (47%) with two Burgundy clones (95 and 76). Whole-bunch pressed to a mixture of barriques, hogsheads and a puncheon with a small amount of new oak. Barrel-fermented with some parts going through malolactic fermentation. The wine was then sulphured and left on full lees for a year. Bottled filtered, but unfined. 3300 bottles produced.
’There is a delicacy and fine acid line to this wine that makes it tight and poised. It isn’t a Chardonnay for the more traditional ‘sunshine in a glass’ lovers.’
