100% Nannup Chardonnay was pressed straight to French oak of which 30% was new for fermentation. The yeasts indigenous to the vineyard were allowed to weave their magic and ‘voila’, we have a wine of great character that would sit comfortably alongside some of the finest Burgundy can offer. Crisp fresh pear, zesty citrus, spicy oak assault the senses, all you need is to imagine you are in the dusty barrel halls of Meursault.
