Bannockburn3 Years on Lees Chardonnay
About this product
Michael Glover is the current Bannockburn's winemaking custodian of viticultural excellence which shines through in this remarkable Chardonnay. The standard release Bannockburn Chardonnay was kept on lees in a mixture of barrique, puncheon and tank for 2 years. This limited release was then given a further 12 months extended time. The result of which contributes greatly to texture, flavour complexity and natural stability of the wine.

Mid-gold, vibrant green hue, the bouquet is surprisingly fresh and vibrant, showing nectarine, citrus blossom, almond meal and spicy oak notes: the palate is very concentrated, showing life and vitality, tangy acidity and a creamy texture that can only have come through such extended maturation on lees.
