Tasting Notes

This delightful Chardonnay displays delicate aromas of white blossom with a touch of flinty minerality alongside notes of orchard and persimmon fruits. It has a very refreshing palate, with a lime zestiness leading onto lingering tropical fruit flavours and a little tang of cape gooseberry. Finishing with a generously textured mouthfeel. 


Technical Details


Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay

Alcohol: 12.5% Vol

Harvesting & Pressing: Burgundian Chardonnay clones were carefully harvested at optimal ripeness from various parcels from our vineyards. The grapes were then gently pressed, and the juice was cold settled for 24 hours.

Fermentation & Ageing: Once racked, the juice was inoculated with aromatic yeasts. Mid alcoholic fermentation the wine underwent partial malolactic fermentation to soften the acidity and increase mouthfeel. The wine was aged on fine yeast lees and stirred twice a week to add texture prior to bottling in spring 2024.

Reviews

“Alive with vibrancy, this pristine unoaked Chardonnay is a flashlight in a bottle. Move over, Chablis."

Olly Smith

" This is sharp as tack, bright and breezy and for lovers of Chablis; no need to cross the channel for good, cool climate Chardonnay, it's here in Kent. Tremendous with seafood such as bivalves, soft cheeses as well as fatty fish such as salmon, sea trout and mackerel."
