BARWITE CHARDONNAY 2015

Harvested by hand early in this warmer year, the fruit was crushed to small vessels to settle before fermenting the clear juice, in 20% new oak French puncheons and 10% seasoned French oak barriques. After ferment it was left on lees for 6 weeks, which has increased the complexity and contributed spice and texture to the palate. A lovely, fleshy wine with aromas and flavours of honeydew melon, ripe nectarine and white flowers, balanced with tangy acidity, it will reward cellaring for up to 5 years. 13% alc/vol
