2011 Hen Chicken Chardonnay Big Berries Little Berries The Vintage Conditions leading up to harvest were ideal for Chardonnay with moderate temperatures, cool nights and below average rainfall. The Winemaking Fruit was hand picked, whole bunch pressed fermented with natural yeasts and aged in new and 2 year old French oak for 8 months with 80% malolatic fermentation. The Wine Aromas of melon, citrus and minerals, follow through on the palate. A creamy mouthfeel, with a generous palate structure and a clean acid backbone. Complex flavour profile, with stone fruit, melon and citrus complemented by savoury components of minerality and toasty nuttiness. A long clean finish. Drink With Poultry, game, blue cheese and fish dishes
