Felton Road Block 2 Chardonnay 2016 is an organic white wine from the Bannockburn sub-region of Central Otago. This single-block expression is sourced from a north-facing site where the vines are planted on calcified schist soils. The 2016 vintage produced a Chardonnay with great energy and a savoury, saline character that is amplified by the magnum format`s slower maturation. Winemaking involved whole-cluster pressing and fermentation with indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels. The palate is textured and flinty, showing a harmonious balance between ripe citrus fruit and integrated oak, leading into a long, mineral finish.

Dairy, oatmeal, baked apple and a squeeze of lemon. Dry, but not as savoury as its Burgundian equivalent, although the acidity is similarly bright. Well-integrated, sophisticated oak spice. (RH)
