Palliser Estate Martinborough Chardonnay 2022
- French oak
- Grilled nectarine
- Hazlenut
- Tight structure
Pale lemon with a golden hue. An intensely satisfying bouquet of vanilla, creme brulee, grilled nectarine, pineapple and hazelnut. A ripe and creamy style of our Estate Chardonnay on first inspection, before the classic Palliser freshness and minerality floods the palate along with juicy pineapple flavours and nutty French Oak. A fine, mealy mouthfeel and tight structure amounts to a stylish and satisfying wine.
18% of the fruit from our organic vineyard Om Santi with the balance from the Palliser vineyard. The clonal mix is 40% Clone 548, 55% Clone 95 the balance Clone 15. Handpicked, whole bunch pressed and fermented in french oak barrels by the yeast from the vineyard. After fermenation is complete the barrels are kept topped and some lees stirring on selected barrels adds complexity and texture to the wine. After 10 months in barrel the wine is racked clear to tank and bottled in March 2023.
Food Pairing: Enjoy with chicken and leek pie or a seafood chowder, or pair with staples like roast pork and apple sauce.
