2010 Southside Chardonnay

 

 chardonnay

 

This chardonnay is sourced from fruit grown on the estate vineyard in Wilyabrup. It offers a contrast to the Lenton Brae estate Chardonnay, in being slightly more open and accessible.

Partial 'wild' primary and malo-lactic fermentation has softened the wines natural acidity and added a creamy, complexity to the wine.

This wine will appease those looking for a richer, fuller style of Chardonnay and will drink well in the short to medium term.

Bottled February 2011.

Price: $25.00

"Pale quartz-green; produced from 26 year old estate grown vines; fermented in a mix of new and used french oak barrels; a very precise wine in the heartland of the Lenton Brae style, with tangy grapefruit leading white peach fruit."

94/100 James Halliday
