Medhurst Chardonnay 2025
Picked in the cool of the morning from 17th-19th February (a blend of Mendoza and I10V1 clones), the fruit was placed in the cool room overnight to maintain berry turgor and freshness and then pressed cold the following morning. The juice spent 24 hours in tank and was then transferred to barrel with full solids for primary fermentation. Partial MLF was undertaken and the wine spent 7 months in new (15%) and used oak before blending with full solids into tank.
5 Months, 15% New Oak
Japanese Pork Katsu
Very pale luminescent green color and brilliant in the glass. The wine opens up with a nose that is intensely floral with citrus blossom, grapefruit, orange citrus, wet stones and a hints of flinty minerals.
The palate has lovely fleshy intensity with a focussed core of crunchy peach, lemon curd and white nectarine with a long fine finish. Open knit with lovely fruit weight all framed by delicate spicy oak and driven by fine talcy acidity.
