Product details

A foudre is a large oval cask. The fruit for this wine is 67% from the Jagged Rock Vineyard and 33% from the Border Vista Vineyard. The wine was aged 16 months in oak foudres, one of which was new. The size of the casks means that this is the most fruit-forward of the Chardonnays. The wine begins with aromas of citrus leading to flavours of peach, pear and mandarin orange with notes of honey and spice on the finish. The texture of this wine shows a seamless polish. Score - 97.
