Written Notes

“The nose here is far more restrained.  Finesse, concentration, length, texture.  50/50 Gin Gin/Davis clone (the Davis component ‘grown like a sparkling cropped 9T to the hectare’).  There is a focus in the vineyard on maintaining thick skins for texture and concentration.  That is certainly evident in the wine.  This spends 9 months in French oak, and 50% of it goes through malolactic fermentation, so the texture and feel is at once creamy and bright. 2016 was another great chardonnay vintage in Margaret River: the more I see of it the more I like.  This was no exception.”
