Description
Nautilus Estate chardonnay
2017
Great winery facilities mean that we can pick our grapes when they are ripe. We have a great deal of control over things like the amount of extraction (the colour and flavour) we get out of the grape skins.
The Nautilus Shell
The mathematically perfect spiral of the Nautilus shell has been admired since ancient Greek times. This shape is found throughout nature: in the growth of seeds on a sunflower head, in the air movement of a cyclone, or in the spiral through which a hawk flies towards its prey.
This natural balance and proportion is something we seek to express in our wines.
