About This Wine
This vineyard lies just inland from the coast. Its sandy, schisty soils are well weathered. These chardonnay vines (gingin clone) run east-west with a slightly sloping northern aspect.
Hand-picked, whole bunch pressed and transferred directly to oak with full solids. Fermented by the native years in barrique (approximately 30% new). Post ferment, barrels are left cool but unsulphured for 4 months to encourage autolytic activity. Batonnage every two weeks based on flavour and partial MLF to balance the high natural acidity of this vintage. Wine was racked with full lees to tank in December and spent two months on lees in tank before bottling in February 2020.
