Jordan Chardonnay Auction Selection 2014
This reserve Chardonnay is traditionally made using natural, wild yeast with the grapes coming from the acclaimed Nine Yards Chardonnay vineyard. Intensely concentrated lemon-lime flavours and slow fermentation in 228 litre Burgundian oak barrels for twelve months has resulted in a classic style with a new world twist. Quartzite veins through the 600 million year old granite sub-strata provide the backbone for the mineral flavours. Regular barrel rolling accentuates the rich, leesy character in this elegantly expressive wine.
