2017 Oakridge Vineyard Series Henk Chardonnay

Matured in 500 litre French oak puncheons for 10 months on lees. Brilliant very pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Aromas of nectarines tinged with grapefruit meet up with light dried honey, citrusy nougat, subtle biscuity oak and notions of gun flint. Elegant with a feeling of freshness to the ripe nectarine, grapefruit and citrus flavours, there’s also a light creaminess to the textural feel brought on by elements of dried honey, nougat and subtle biscuity oak. Finishes dry with fresh acidity and a long refined aftertaste of nectarine, grapefruit, citrusy nougat, dried honey and light cashew.
Cellar 4-5 years.
Alc. 13.6%
