ChaLou Chardonnay

Tasting Notes: The 2025 ChaLou Chardonnay is restrained yet with power.  Vibrant aroma of fresh ripe citrus, orchard fruits and delicate white florals. The palate is pithy with grapefruit and subtle spice.  Softly textured with a drawing acitity. A wine of precision, purity and intent. 

Food: Burrata with chargrilled radicchio and hazelnuts

Season: A warm wet spring followed by a hot and reasonably dry summer, with rain at welcomed intervals. Vines were shoot thinned and and crop reduced to balance vines.  Beautful ripeness from the 2025 season with freshness and power across all varieties. 

Winemaking Notes:

Hand-picked at ~11.8baume and chilled overnight in the cool room.

Whole bunch pressed - Whole press; not fractions taken to allow subtle texture.

Wild fermented in a older French Hogsheads and left to mature of lees until blending for bottling.
