about the harvest: Domain grapes produced on chosen Chardonnay “terroirâ€. A difficult vintage, after experiencing one of the wettest January months on record, resulting in an uncomfortable and challenging harvest. Selection was essential and much frustration was experienced with the problem of having to wait for greater fruit maturity. Grape sugars of less than 23ºB illustrate the winemaking philosophy of not producing overripe Chardonnays, but rather capturing the style of wines, which will age well, as practised in the classic Burgundian white wine preparations.
