Wild Barrique

Wild Barrique

Collector of accolades and glowing reviews, this Chardonnay is highly talked about and admired. It is granted extended time on lees, with rich and luxurious flavours and texture, showcasing another feather in the winemaking cap.

Chardonnay

This vibrant and award-winning style is 100% wild fermented in a mix of puncheons and barriques before it spends a year in barrel undergoing malolactic fermentation and extended time on lees. The result is a finely poised wine of power, complexity and texture brimming with notes of brioche, citrus melon, fig and vanilla notes and a sublime finish.
