Harvests of Chardonnay are sourced from good vineyards around the warmer regions of the Swan Valley through to Blackwood, Geographe and Margaret River, to the cooler areas of Pemberton and Manjimup. Three months lees contact achieves a complexity of flavour that covers an enticing array from ripe peach, nectarine, and rockmelon, through to the leaner pineapple and grapefruit characters associated with cooler climates. After being destemmed and crushed, the fruit undergoes a controlled cool fermentation through select strains of yeast, to retain the full spectrum of Chardonnay characters. The final wine is assembled completely unwooded and unoaked.
