La Bri Chardonnay
Description
The Harvest
Handpicked during last week of February.
In the Cellar
Overnight cold storage of the grapes preserved the fresh fruity character during whole bunch pressing. After settling, the clear juice was racked off its gross lees into a selection of the best 300 and 600L French oak barrels (39% new). The wines underwent a mix of natural fermentation and selected inoculation in the barrels. After three months lees contact the wine was racked and returned to age for a total of 12 months
