The fruit for this wonderful chardonnay was sourced from vineyards at the Wallcliffe Wilyabrup and Karridale along the most famous road in the region. After handpicking the fruit was pressed straight to new and used oak for fermentation and subsequent maturation for 10 months So there is texture and palate richness here but there is also a fine minerality and linear mouth feel that gives it focus and precision through a long palate. Slightly toasty subtle grapefruit and cashew characters with a chalky limestone acidity to finish. Damn fine.
