Winemaking

With minimal intervention winemaking, this Chardonnay was naturally fermented and aged for 14 months on yeast lees in seasoned French oak barriques and cuves. Full MLF occurred before being finished unfined and unfiltered with low sulphur. The wine was then aged in bottle for a further 16 months before release.
