A clean, fresh and crisp Chardonnay with a full body and weighty mouthfeel. Deep flavours of lemon juice and rind, bitter orange peel, lime zest, peach flesh and honey touches combine to give a superb overall taste and feel. Made with hand-picked grapes, pressed slowly and then aged for up to 15 months with minimal intervention.
