2023 Estate Chardonnay

Another great year as we had a beautiful winter with plenty of rainfall, which meant a healthy and vibrant growing season. Hailstorms at the beginning of vintage caused damages to our vineyard, resulting in lowered grape yields than previous years, however the quality of the fruit was not affected. The cooler temperatures throughout the vintage made it ideal for whites. While the cooler temperature created a much longer vintage, with reds being harvested in May, by letting the fruit develop on the vines for longer, we’re seeing beautiful flavours with a lot of depths and concentration. This has undoubtedly created some stunning and elegant wines.
