Grigori Vintners SA Chardonnay

The fruit for this wine was harvested from vineyards with careful row selection yielding the best possible parcels for use in this blend. The fruit was harvested within the range of 12.5 to
13.0 Baume, once it had developed a full intensity and complexity of flavours, while retaining a crisp acid structure mouthfeel for complex flavours on the finish.

The cold grapes were crushed and lightly pressed. Cold settling followed immediately at ultra low temperatures. The free run was kept separate to ensure that only the finest juice was used toensure a wine of premium quality. This juice was then very slowly fermented using selected yeast strains to enhance the natural fruit aromas of the grapes individual component wines were selected to create a delicate, crisp and refreshing style of wine showing elegance, finesse and concentration.
