Post ferment the wine was left on lees in barrel for partial malolactic fermentation while stirring regularly to build texture. \u003cspan\u003eThe 2025 vintage shows white peach, fresh cream, green lemon and nougat, laced with a flinty reduction and grapefruit. Perfectly ripe fruit sits at the centre. A terrific phenolic line adds detail and drive, with the site’s natural acidity perfectly pitched to steer a deeply long and complex palate. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e🌱 \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(7, 156, 27);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eVegan Friendly\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eCombining intensity with thrilling verve is a bit of a trademark here, with all the winemaking tools that make chardonnay so compelling, but each exercised with due restraint. White nectarine, lemon curd and yellow grapefruit are accented with salted praline, roasted hazelnuts and crystallised ginger, the balance of textural sway, fruit intensity, acid verve and fine pithiness are à point, the quiet power of it impressive.
