Description
Reserve Bin A Chardonnay has evolved into a wine that is now a distinctive, single-region style, with a contemporary and expressive Adelaide Hills chardonnay persona. Fruit is hand-picked into small bins and then whole-bunch pressed. A portion of the juice is allowed to undergo a natural fermentation, sans inoculation. Every new and seasoned French oak barrique is its own unique 225-litre ferment. Enhanced mouthfeel and complexity are achieved by fermenting and maturing on solids with regular yeast lees stirring (bâttonage). 100% malolactic fermentation (all natural).
Very restrained, tightly coiled. With a gentle swirl emerge notes of custard apple, granny smiths, white nectarine and beurre bosc pear. A powerful, complex and dynamic wine. The phenolics have plenty of depth and length. The palate has real drive, held together by a core of taught acidity. The mouthfeel has a lovely texture and weight. The finish is long and memorable.
