2022 Cornerstone Karridale Chardonnay

$65.00
NOTES
Appearance

Pale straw with a green tinge

Aroma

Citrus blossom, lemon meringue, honeydew melon, hazelnut, sea spray freshness

Taste

Smooth, ripe citrus, stone fruit, mealy notes & biscuity oak.

Vineyard

100% Gingin clone, hand-picked from 24th February – 1st March 2022 between 11.6° – 11.9° Bé. Sourced from a single north facing block on our close-planted Karridale property in the Forest Grove subregion of southern Margaret River

Wet winter & spring led to reduced yields. Warm, dry summer & autumn brought exceptional quality.

Winery

On arrival at the winery, the fruit was chilled overnight & then gently whole bunch pressed straight to 228L Burgundy barrels (of which 35% were new) & allowed to undergo a wild ferment. Early discretionary lees stirring was carried out & malolactic fermentation was blocked. The wine was aged for nine months. After a rigorous barrel selection, the wine was blended, filtered, but not fined & bottled in December 2022
