Golden straw colour. Ripe nectarine and butterscotch aromas. On the palate there is a lovely balance of grapefruit, yeast autolysis and toasty oak flavors. A beautiful Chardonnay with excellent aging ability.
The 2016 growing season saw a number of frost events, all well mitigated. Early shoot thinning resulted in balanced canopies and crop levels. The season had a slow start, followed by a particularly warm summer and autumn period. Humidity needed to be monitored closely. A vintage which required good management, was well rewarded.
