2023 Chardonnay ($40/bottle)

This chardonnay was hand-picked at optimum ripeness and gently whole-bunch pressed into French oak barriques, where indigenous yeasts completed the fermentation to dryness. Fresh aromas of nectarine, citrus and oyster shell mess with subtle oak overtones. On the palate, mouth-filling flavours of peach, fresh mango and
lemon pith are complemented by the delicate minerality of the oak. Saline acidity balances the richness and creaminess of the fruit.
