TASTING NOTE – Orange blossom and stone fruit are prominent on the nose. Steely minerality with lingering citrus
fruit on the palate makes this wine your perfect summer companion.
IN THE VINEYARD – Vines planted: 1995 – Soil: Hutton/Oak leaf – Yield: 7 t/ha – Irrigation: Dry land – Trellising: 5 wire extended moveable per old – Elevation: 400m
THE HARVEST – One of the more difficult years for chardonnay due to cold evenings and strong winds during our
flower season. This also led to very low production and uneven ripening of the grapes.
We harvested in stages to make sure we only receive optimal ripened fruit.
IN THE CELLAR – The grapes was harvested in cooler conditions and during the crushing and fermentation kept at
low temperatures. Fermentation is only done in stainless steel tanks, no wood is added. We have
the wine on the lees for up to 4 months depending on the vintage.
