Tasting Notes

The wine shows clean lines of minerality, citrus and yellow flower notes on the nose. This is supported with the creamy almond and white chocolate aromas derived from the oak. The wine has a full, textured palate that shows the delicate power that Chardonnay possesses. It has a balanced richness that finishes in a clean, mineral undertone that lingers on the palate.

Winery

La Vierge

Wooded

The clean juice was racked off after 24 hours and fermented in 5L French oak barrels (3% new). The wine was sulphured at the completion of alcoholic fermentation to inhibit MLF. This was done to keep the freshness and natural vibrant acidity in the wine. The wine was left on gross lees and intermittent batonage was performed for 6 months. The total time in barrel was 14 months.
