Kelly Washington Rapaura Marlborough Chardonnay 2021

Kelly Washington Rapaura Marlborough Chardonnay 2021

  • French oak
  • White peach 
  • Citrus & melon
  • Flinty finish

A refined style of Chardonnay. Delicate notes of white peach, melon and citrus are at the forefront, supported by savoury, toasty, nutty notes which are promoted by a mindful selection of French oak. Wholly complete yet with great aging potential, the KW Chardonnay brings together poise and elegance, and is defined by long, flinty finish.

A memorable season across all of our wine growing regions, with a cooler flowering period contributing to smaller bunches and berries. The proceeding ripening period was absolutely stellar, with beautiful sunny days and cool nights producing ripe, clean fruit loaded with natural concentration and vibrancy.

100% whole bunch pressed with minimal settling. Fermentation commenced naturally after 7 days, on full lees, with native yeast in 100% French oak barriques -1 new, 2 on the third fill and 1 neutral puncheon. After fermentation, the wine remained on full lees in the French oak barriques for 10 months. It was then racked and blended. 100% natural Malolactic fermentation.
