Windfall Estate

Single Handed Western Australian Chardonnay 2018

The 2018 Chardonnay fruit was whole berry pressed, before being racked to barrel where it went through fermentation. Temperature was controlled for a cooler ferment. Malolactic fermentation was not encouraged so the vibrant natural acidity was preserved. Post fermentation the lees were stirred gently once a week until the balance between oak, lees and fruit characters was achieved. Sulphured in barrel for a month before final blending and bottled.
