Description

Ashton Hills Piccadilly Valley chardonnay

“The one Grand Cru of the state.” – James Halliday

 

A limited release chardonnay from two selected Piccadilly Valley sites. Ferment was sparked by indigenous yeasts and the wine aged in Burgundian oak (predominantly puncheons) both old and new for eight months.

NOSE

White peach and fresh green apple along with Jasmin, Crème Brulee and a hint of spice from French oak.

MOUTH

Yellow peach and stone fruits are carried across the palate by a mouth-watering acid drive. A hint of lemon pith phenolics provides the wine with lovely texture.
