Giant Steps Chardonnay 2002
Chardonnay
from Yarra Valley, Australia
winemaker's notes:
Hand picked, sorted and whole bunch pressed with minimal sulphur.
Barrel fermented and aged on lees with minimal handling, gravity racking and a gentle filtration prior to bottling 12 months later. Minimal MLF. Bottled with a screw cap.
Cool, dry ripening seasons allow us to draw out the palate whilst tightening up the finish.
Nose - characteristically complex nectarine, white peach and citrus with underlying secondary cashew and grain meal.
Palate - firm, yet creamy textural wine overlayed with minerally lemon zest and nectarine.
Very good aging potential.
