It is a provocative, complex and textural wine exuding the seductive spirit of “old world” chardonnay. The vines have been managed to allow only dappled light into the fruiting zone. This promotes flavor development, low tannins and bright levels of natural acidity. The fruit is farmed in the cool southern end of Margaret River. The tiny 100g Gin Gin clusters are hand harvested at first light to preserve freshness of fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlavours of fresh nectarines and candied pecan nuts are supported by aromas of poached pears and marzipan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003c!--\/winemaker-notes_col--\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"winemaker-notes__title\"\u003eAWARDS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 pts James Halliday \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Cloudy juice ex whole bunch pre ferment, mlf, and the gingin clone all help create a wine of stellar complexity and length...... drink to 2029.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 pts Huon Hooke \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\".....great character and drive.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 pts Gary Walsh \u003c\/strong\u003e\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eGrand style of Margaret River Chardonnay on show here\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"accordion-title\"\u003eWinemaker's Notes\u003c\/button\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-block\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"winemaker-notes__title\"\u003eALCOHOL\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e13.0% by Vol | 7.7 Standard Drinks\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"winemaker-notes__title\"\u003eFOOD MATCHING\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRoast free range chicken | salmon | smoked butter on sourdough\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"winemaker-notes__title\"\u003eGROWING SEASON\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of the great years for white wines.
