Jordan Chardonnay Reserve 2005
Crushing and pressing of this special selection of grapes from the Nine Yards Chardonnay vineyard took place immediately after destemming. The juice was barrel fermented in traditional 228 litre French oak barriques using natural yeast from the vineyard. Fourteen months oak maturation and regular barrel rolling to accentuate the rich, leesy character has added complexity to this wine specially made for the CWG Auction. Tasting Note: This reserve Chardonnay has intense, minerally, lemon and lime flavours with hints of butterscotch and vanilla. The full, rich mouthfeel and balanced toasty oak integrates well with the tropical fruit finish.
