Winery notes (2016 Vintage)
"The 24th vintage of Foxes Island Chardonnay represents a generation of care, commitment and refinement. The vines grow on the highest terrace on the Estate, where the ancient soils are deep and full of friable minerals.
Hand-picked grapes were gently pressed and vinified by indigenous yeast in large French oak barrels. Fermentation was long and slow, which allowed the wine to benefit from time in the barrel. After bottling, the wine was aged in the cellar to al low layers of complexity to develop.
A precise and structured wine, vibrant floral aromas lead to flavours of sun-ripe apricot, butterscotch, chalk, and white pepper, underpinned by warm, toasty brioche and native flower honey. The wine has a lengthy, energetic finish with layers of texture."
