Elegant aromas of wet stone, citrus peel and lemon tart. On the palate, vibrant acidity is rounded gently by supple texture from the barrel ferment. A core of well-defined fruit leads to a long and intense finish.The Chardonnay grapes were harvested by hand and gently whole bunch pressed using an old Vaslin basket press. The juice was managed oxidatively and left to settle with no additives or cooling. Spontaneous fermentation took place in 500L French oak barrels and the wine was left to mature for 11 months in larger Burgundy barrels (5% new). The three vineyards were vinified separately, with attention given to pairing coopers and specific barrels for each vineyard. The wine was left to settle in stainless steel tanks for three months prior to bottling, followed by nine months ageing in bottle prior to release.
