2004 vintage
The 2004 Chardonnay is pale straw in colour and has a delicate bouquet that expresses poached pear up-front followed by more complex malo yeasty characters. The latter are the result of the wine having some light oak barrel maturation. The poached pears and malo characters continue through to the palate. They are round and silky on the mid palate and the wine finishes with pleasant acidity and good length.

A beautiful 100% barrel fermented chardonnay that is bright straw coloured in appearance. It expresses lovely stone fruit combined with subtle French oak characters on the nose. These same characters follow through onto the palate with firm acidity and a pleasant rounded mouth feel.
