Fermented and matured in a mix of premium French oak. Sourced predominantly from the east-facing block of the Mendoza clone. All blocks are hand-picked, sorted and whole bunch pressed. Pressed juice settled overnight then coarsely racked directly to barrel for a mix of wild and inoculated fermentation. Aged on lees in barrel with minimal stirring.
This wine deliberately eschews the modern style of taut and fine-boned expressions of Chardonnay, offering a defiant reclamation of the middle ground where body, flavour, and palate weight can co-exist with structure, texture, and measured acidity.
