Bold, powerful, creamy Chardonnay with bright deep citrusy flavours. This wine is made 100% from the Om Santi Vineyard in Martinborough, which is in conversion to organic certification with BioGro NZ.

All grapes are handpicked, whole bunch pressed with a portion to oak barrels and a portion to stainless steel tanks. The tank portion is cold settled over night and then racked to French oak where fermentation is with vineyard yeasts and the occasional stirring to add texture and complexity to the wine.

The wine gains weight, smoothness, spicy notes and texture from 12 months in oak. It is bottled unfiltered to provide a close reflection of site and season.
