A vibrant, pale green golden straw colour, the bouquet of this Tasmanian grown wine is delicate, with steely aromas, lush green fruits, apple, pear, citrus and limes, washed river bed quartz, hints of rock salt and minerals combining to an extraordinary complexity. Underlying stone fruit linger on the palate, accompanied by the soft tones of freshly toasted chestnuts and vanilla bean spice from fermentation in fine French oak barriques.
The palate is clean, fresh, vibrant and mineral tight, a new direction in style for this estate's chardonnay, with longer more mineral stream lined acid balance, less obtrusive oak, a greater harmony between fruit intensity and palate cleaning and the retention of higher than previous levels of malic acid. Only some malolactic fermentation has led this wine down a path of rejuvenated elegance, in contrast to the fat and full style of yesteryear. Its now long and satisfying finish, the fruit concentrated and complex and refreshing, offers a classic Puligny aromatic profile of minerals, white peach, apple, and pear all tightly gathered together on the palate with the seamless fresh crisp acid and a structure for aging.
