Our 2023 Chardonnay embodies purity and finesse. Subtle nuances of struck match and flinty minerality intertwine with a whisper of oak spice on the nose, along with delicious lemon curd and hints of nashi pear. At its heart lies a focused core of ripe stone fruit, enveloped by a pristine acid structure that bestows both richness and tension across the palate.

A combination of Chardonnay clones I10V1 and P58 were gently pressed into large format seasoned French oak for indigenous fermentation. The wine received minimal intervention during the 10 month élevage on lees in barrel prior to bottling.
