Tony Bish Heartwood Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2020
- French oak
- White peach
- Honey melon
- Racy acidity
"Barrel-fermented in three-year-old French oak barriques. Concentrated Chardonnay with peach, citrus, root ginger and spicy oak flavours supported by racy acidity. Delicious, mouth-watering wine with an impeccable balance of fruit-and-alcohol sweetness and acidity. A classy Chardonnay from a top vintage" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Jun 2021
Lifted citrus blossom nose with guava, mandarin, white peach and almond brioche notes. The palate has textural depth with honey melon, peach and ripe citrus notes. Layered and richly fruited, this wine has depth and tremendous drinking appeal.
Hand-picked Hawke’s Bay Mendoza Chardonnay was whole bunch pressed, with just the free run juice sent to ferment in new and seasoned French oak barriques. No additions were made to the juice prior to ferment.
A percentage of barrels were indigenous ferments, the balance with a selected Chardonnay yeast. The wine was aged in barrel for 11 months prior to minimal handling for bottling preparation.
