Personalised Giant Steps Clay Ferment Ocarina Chardonnay 2021 12.5% 750 ML

Personalised Giant Steps Clay Ferment Ocarina Chardonnay 2021 12.5% 750 ML

Fruit from 5 single vineyards with each parcel whole-bunch pressed to 675L clay egg-shaped fermentation/aging pots. The lids are sealed with clay so there’s no lees stirring. Fermented with wild yeast and 2 lots went through spontaneous mlf. It’s quite astonishing how these vessels shape the feel and taste of the final blend. This chardonnay is tight, linear and superfine with its acid profile. Yet it has plenty of flavour with hints of citrus, lemon salts and a smidge of creamed honey. It’s refreshing and pulsating with energy. A super drink.
