This is as seductive a Chardonnay as I have tasted in a while. The wine was carefully assembled from early harvest and later harvest grapes. The former was fermented in stainless steel with cultured yeast. The later harvested fruit was fermented in barrel with wild yeast and also allowed to go through malolactic fermentation. The result is a wine brimming with citrus and tropical fruit flavours with a touch of vanilla and biscotti. It has a long sensual finish.
