The 2018 Carrick Bannockburn Chardonnay is a blend of threeMdifferent parcels and two clones – Mendoza and Clone 6. It is fermented and matrured in French oak barriques for 12 months, 13% new oak was used.
Once blended the barrels spent a further 9 months in vat to allow time for the wines to stabilize naturally. Released after at least 6 months of bottle age, the Bannockburn Chardonnay is classic, full-bodied white wine with toast, citrus and marmalade notes. Classic, inviting and well-balanced.
Serve slightly chilled and enjoy with pasta, chicken or grain salads.
