- TASTING NOTE: Pale green straw in the glass, this wine opens with lifted aromas of citrus blossom and white florals, complemented by a myriad of pink and white grapefruit. Notes of scratched lemon skin and pith intertwine with hints of fresh waterfall spray and wet stone minerality. The palate is vibrant and lively, showcasing flavours of pink and green apple, kiwi, and white peach. Crunchy green pear, green melon, and clementine add precision and linear drive, while a subtle touch of seasoned oak softens the texture, achieving a perfect balance between bright fruit and refreshing acidity. This is a refined, elegant expression of Margaret River Chardonnay.
- ABOUT THE WINE: The cooler climate of Southern Margaret River produces distinct varietal character and high natural acidity. Each batch is picked in the cool of the night and processed soon after picking to ensure varietal flavours are preserved. Fermentation and malolactic occurs in a combination of 50% French oak (10% new) and 50% stainless-steel tank to retain freshness and purity. The temperature of fermentation is between 18ºC to 22ºC and the lees are stirred from the end of fermentation and throughout the malolactic. After 10 months on lees, the wine is blended to tank and held for 2 months prior to fining, filtration and bottling. Howard Park
