A lively and complex expression of Marlborough Chardonnay produced from our organic certified Headwaters Vineyard in the Wairau Valley. Deliciously spicy peach, golden apple and honeydew melon with hints of toffee and lemon lingering on the finish.
Cashew, lemon curd and rock-melon.aromas. Touch of wood smoke.
Stone fruits, (nectarine/ apricot), with apple and melon, complex sweet hay-like aroma and a subtle cedar note. Lingering warm and spicy. Intense and opulent.
The fruit was harvested from our certified organic Headwaters Vineyard near Renwick in Marlborough’s Wairau Valley. The juice was cold settled then fermented in a combination of 228L oak barrels and stainless steel vats with indigenous (wild) yeasts. A portion of the wine was then encouraged to undergo malolactic fermentation. After nine and a half months on lees to increase mouthfeel, oak integration and complexity, the components were blended. This was followed by a light fining.
