2023 SINGLE BLOCK C CHARDONNAY

$95.00 inc GST

Planted by the Farr’s & the Weir families in 1979 to the P58 clone on its own roots. This is the oldest block on the property and continually produces fruit with depth and purity. Gently whole bunch pressed with the initial high solids nutrient rich juice taken directly from the press tray into French oak for natural fermentation. The balance of the juice is cold settled before putting to oak, with battonage to create layered complexity. 

Pale straw in colour, this wine opens with captivating layers of green apple, ocean spray and subtle struck-match complexity. The palate reveals a full-bodied core of pristine fruit, supported by fine, chalky tannins that lend a saline-driven backbone. Elegant, long and intense, it’s a seamless expression of both power and restraint.
