The Chardonnay comes mainly from her own Palisander vineyard, a south-facing plot planted in 2017 on dolerite, with fruit from growers in Richmond and Penna. Hand-picked bunches are pressed whole, straight into Mercurey French oak puncheons, 23% new. It is wild fermented, goes through full malolactic fermentation and spends 10 months in barrel without stirring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLight straw with green edges.
