Product Details

Tasting Notes: Made from 100% Chardonnay, the nose exudes ripe stone fruit, lemon zest and pineapple slices. Clean, refreshing acidity supports the ripe yellow-profile fruit, complexed by vanilla bean spice and an oatmeal texture. Would pair with roast chicken, mushroom risotto or a slice of Camembert.

Viniculture: The 2016 vintage from Lothian Vineyards' 3 blocks of Chardonnay was hand harvested at optimal ripeness. The fruit was whole bunch pressed, with a period of skin contact. Fermentation was started in stainless steel with ambient yeast. The fermenting juice was racked into a selection of French barrique, followed by a period of battonage to bolster the wine's mid-palate. Nine months of barrel maturation on the fine lees fleshed out the wine and added richness.

Prior to bottling the wine was lightly filtered to preserve its integrity.
