Our 2025 Chardonnay has a minerally structure with a real fruit purity. We wanted to explore what the site had to offer in a lovely cool year, so we kept the winemaking very simple.
The fruit was hand-picked, sorted and whole bunch pressed straight into a selection of large format seasoned French oak barrels for wild fermentation. Half the barrels went through a spontaneous malolactic fermentation. The result is a citrus, elegant wine with a lovely underlying acidity – subtle with plenty of fruit presence.
