A mix of ‘Wild’ and ‘Inoculated’ yeast was used to ferment the juice to help create a more complex and interesting wine.
We are elated at what we’ve managed to encapsulate into the bottle this year. A real powerhouse of a Chardonnay with all the elements we love; punchy stone fruit, brioche notes from the malolactic fermentation, fine French oak bringing structure and spice. Vintage 2021 was a stunner across the board and what better way to express this great vintage than this fine example of Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay at its absolute peak.
