2008 Vasse Felix Heytesbury Chardonnay

Recently awarded the Trophy for ‘Best Chardonnay’ at the Tri Nations Wine Challenge.
The Heytesbury Chardonnay represents the best Chardonnay Vasse Felix can produce from fruit grown in the Margaret River region. It’s a selection of the best barrels from the best batches of Chardonnay that best represent the vintage. The wine was fermented entirely with wild yeast and maturation took place in French oak barriques, of which 70% were new, for a period of 10 months.
