2022 Eva Pemper Single Vineyard Marlborough Chardonnay

TASTING NOTE
Bright, varietal, smooth textured aromas of peach and apple, grapefruit and light vanilla barrel spice quality. Equally bright and fruity on the palate with flavours that mirror the bouquet, a fine barrel texture with a cashew nut quality, plenty of acidity and fine wood tannins. A light lees quality layers in extra mouthfeel highlighting the peach and vanilla qualities.

WINEMAKING
The grapes were hand harvested and gently whole bunch pressed to French oak barrels for fermentation with selected yeast strains with aim to preserve the aromatic and fruit flavours from the vineyard. Wine was barrel aged for 10 months on lees to build mouthfeel and texture.
