Vineyard Notes: This single vineyard Chardonnay comes from our 1.2 hectare block in Rowland Flat, in the southern Barossa Valley. The vines were planted in 2005 in sandy/rocky hill side on a single wire trellis.
Winemaking Notes: During vintage the grapes were monitored for flavour development to ensure we harvested at optimal ripeness. This wine was fermented and aged partly in new French oak and stainless steel to add options and complexity at blending.
