This wonderfully opulent Chardonnay displays warming tropical fruit aromas of pineapple & peach, leading to tones of luscious butterscotch and hints of zesty grapefruit. There is a generosity of apricot and creamy patisserie flavours on the palate, which are supple and elegant, with a smooth and sophisticated finish.
Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay Alcohol: 13.5% Vol Harvesting & Vinification: A specially selected parcel of Chardonnay clone 548 was hand-harvested on 15th October 2025. This date was carefully identified as the optimum window to harvest these grapes, when they were presenting opulent flavours combined with balanced acidity. Once pressed, the juice was left to settle for twelve hours. Fermentation & Ageing: The juice was racked to eight barrels with high levels of solids. Each barrel had its own unique properties, with two of the set crafted with new American, heavy-toasted oak and six made from one-year old French oak. The wine was then allowed to undergo alcoholic and malolactic fermentation. Post alcoholic fermentation, the wine was aged for nine months in barrel. Initially the lees were stirred bi-weekly, reducing to once per week in January 2026 and then on a monthly-basis for the remaining time in barrel. The wine was then racked into stainless steel tanks ready for filtration and bottling into Magnums.
"I was one of the very first to try the Q Class and can vouch for their incredible flavour and complexity. The Chardonnay was like a buttery toasty baguette with notes of blossom, ripe lemon and a refined flinty acidity." Libby Zietsman - Brodie, CityAM
