Moss Wood Chardonnay

Rich Chardonnay fruit flavours - complexity - a blending of the flavours of Chardonnay fruit, yeast characters from the fermentation process and smokey, spicy characters of new oak. Burgundian influences apply here, with ageing on lees for 9 months in French barriques, without stirring, with a significant proportion undergoing malolactic fermentation. All Chardonnay batches are barrel fermented in 100% new French oak. Lifted combination of fruit aromas and blossom-like cents, reminiscent of honeysuckle. Aromas of nectarine, peach and passionfruit with interesting complex tones of malt biscuit, caramel and charry oak.
