Description
Heavy rain before and during vintage affected the later ripening varieties, in Vintage 2022 our Soldier Farms chardonnay parcels were harvested during mid-late February.
The fruit was picked and immediately crushed, destemmed and chilled to bag press. The juice is then fermented at temperatures of 14° – 16°C using a carefully selected yeasts to optimise varietal expression.
Finally, the wine is blended and filtered for bottling as soon as possible to retain freshness and crisp fruit flavours.
Soldier Farms Chardonnay is light yet creamy with tropical flavours of peach, pineapple, banana and citrus, leading to a long and satisfying finish. This wine is best enjoyed chilled and served with chicken dishes or simply on its own. Dry, light bodied.
