Fruit for this Chardonnay was pressed to second-use puncheons and left with solids for eight months. The result is an appealing wine that screams youthful vitality and freshness. There’s oodles of citrus and melon on the nose, with a tinge of fresh honeysuckle, as well as talc savouriness and a pleasing saltiness. The palate is bright and salty, and while it’s a tasty drop by itself, it’s even nicer with some food.
