100% grown in their Tuki Tuki vineyard which “used to be a complete fruit salad” according to winemaker Chris Scott.  “But we’ve ripped out everything that’s not a top chardonnay clone and every single barrel selected for this wine is a separate hand pick and press”.  Bursting with citrus complexity, seductive, smoky oak, juicy, elegantly ripe stonefruit, it has a finely grained mid-palate texture and pungent, concentrated intensity on the finish.  It’ll reward 8-10 years cellaring because it’s a thoroughbred amongst chardonnay and worth every cent.
