Combination of hand and machine picked fruit. Fruit was pressed to tank. Juice was then racked to barrel and a concrete sphere for fermentation and inoculated with CHD yeast. The wine was matured in barrel and concrete for a period of 6 months on full lees prior to bottling. 65% of the chardonnay was matured in barrel and 35% in our concrete sphere. In total the wine was matured in 15% new oak from cooperages Marcel Cadet and Sirugue. 100% Malolactic conversion.

Fermented in French oak as well as a concrete sphere, the resulting wine is a delightful blend of abundant orchard fruits and crisp acidity, creating an elegant harmony between unwooded and traditional barrel-aged Chardonnay. The wine boasts a refined body and a gentle creaminess that gracefully concludes the palate.
Winemaker Notes

90 Points - Gary Walsh - The Wine Front (April 2025)
This is a very fruity expression of Chardonnay. Peach, ripe apple, aniseed, a little biscuit spice oak. It’s quite juicy and set to almost two fruits sweetness, but does have a good amount of acid cut, some parmesan rind savoury stuff, almond, a green olive and lemon zest character on a finish of good length. Puts me in mind of a warm vintage Chablis in a way, and OK in that way, though it does not have the usual finesse and carriage that you might expect from this producer. There’s something of lime marmalade sweetness here too. In short, good, but sits a little flat in the mouth.
