Wine of Origin Robertson
- A terroir-driven wine expressing the uniqueness of Robertson – rich limestone deposits, sunshine and big diurnal shift.
- Extended time on the lees – bottled in June 2014 and spent 108 months on the lees.
- 50% of the base Chardonnay was fermented in Piece Champenoise French oak barrels, to build complexity and texture.
Tasting Notes: Gentle mineral notes with fresh lime and ripe citrus on the nose. Rich brioche notes bursting on the palate with a creamy and lime zest. Elegant, youthful, and rich texture showing promise to develop.
