This wine comes from two vineyards within a close proximity of our vineyard and winery.
The Deanery vineyard is situated in Balhannah, 7km east of us. We pick this vineyard first, being in a slightly warmer site. The clones of this chardonnay are i10v1 and Mendoza.
Ali’s vineyard is situated in the heart of the Piccadilly Valley, 8km to the south-west of our vineyard. This vineyard produces fruit with great intensity and acid drive and is a combination of g9v7 and i10v1 clones.
Each parcel of chardonnay was direct-pressed then cold-settled before racking to French barrique and puncheon barrels (10% new) for fermentation and maturation for 9 months.
Some battonage was used during maturation to help build mid-palate texture.
Unfined and unfiltered. Minimal sulfur added. ABV: 12.4%
