Production Details The grapes are all hand harvested early in the morning during February. After pressing, the juice is transported to French oak barrels (25% new) with natural malolactic conversion taking place in the barrel. The wine was matured on the lees for 11 months and bottled. The result is a vivid, complex, fruit forward Chardonnay with gentle oak influence supporting the ageing potential.
