Paul Cluver The Wagon Trail Chardonnay 2016
The grapes for The Wagon Trail Chardonnay are sourced from our oldest Chardonnay vineyard, planted in 1987. The grapes were hand-picked and meticulously sorted before whole bunch pressed, settled and transferred to barrel for fermentation. The wine was fermented without inoculation and matured in barrel for nine-and-a-half months. During this time, the lees were stirred in order to keep the wine fresh, and after extensive tasting and barrel selection, the wine was blended and bottled.
