Tasting Notes: This refined Chardonnay delights with bright citrus peel, juicy peach, and pear aromas, elevated by subtle hints of crushed almonds and creamy cashew. A lively acidity brings freshness and focus, balanced beautifully by a creamy, lees-derived texture. Clean, soft, and savoury on the finish, it’s an elegant and refreshing expression of Chardonnay, perfect for any occasion.

Viniculture: The 2025 vintage from Lothian Vineyards' 6 blocks of Chardonnay was hand harvested at optimal ripeness. The fruit was whole bunch pressed, with a period of skin contact. Fermentation was done in stainless steel with ambient yeast. The wine was left on the lees for 8 months, with periodic stirring to improve mouthfeel and protect it.

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