Babydoll Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2019
- Toasty oak
- Pineapple & citrus
- Stone fruit
- Subtle spice
This beautiful pale-gold Chardonnay has aromas of pineapple, citrus and stone fruit with subtle spice and toasty oak. The palate is ripe, textural and sweet fruited with an elegant finish.
The 2019 growing season in Hawke’s Bay was outstanding. Long and warm summer days with cool nights created optimal growing conditions for Chardonnay. The weather continued to remain favourable through March, allowing for fruit to be harvested without the pressure of rain.
The fruit was picked at ideal ripeness and gently pressed. The juice was settled and racked off solids then fermented with a range of vessels, temperatures and yeast strains to give complexity of aroma and mouth feel. After aging on yeast lees with regular stirring, the batches were racked, blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling.
It’s the little things in life that count and it’s the littlest sheep that help make Babydoll wines. This sustainable collection of wines are pure and intense with plenty of character, just like the Babydoll sheep we named them after. These tiny sheep keep the vineyards tidy year round because they’re too small to reach the grapes. Using one of nature’s mowers means these wines are better for the environment and taste better too. Celebrate life’s little moments with Babydoll wines.
Food Pairing: Beautifully matched with roast chicken, fish and chips and oysters.
