Hand-picked fruit from premium vineyard sites at optimum ripeness, this Chardonnay spends 18-months in French oak barriques (20% new). With indigenous yeast fermentation, lees stirring and a complete malolactic fermentation, this is a hand-crafted, superb Chardonnay. What is even more impressive is that this 2019 is only just released now after spending a further two years ageing in bottle. To enjoy it for this price is a testament to the exceptional value our premium NZ wines deliver compared to their European counterparts.
