Zilzie Selection 23 Chardonnay

Warm peach and tropical fruit with a touch of cream and vanilla.  The fruit was harvested in the cool of the night to preserve freshness and quality. Individual batches were cool fermented in stainless steel on French oak, followed by lees stirring to give length and roundness to the palate.

The wine was blended, stabilised and filtered prior to bottling. The vintage 2019 growing season was one of the driest on record. Controlled winter watering and careful monitoring of vine stress levels was key to a successful crop. Temperatures tended to be cooler in spring and early summer which caused a slower start to the season, as temperatures began to rise in late Jan early Feb ripening moved along a little quicker and the team were grateful the vines had sufficient canopies to protect the fruit through to maturity.  The reds from this vintage show excellent depth of colour and fabulous tannins, whilst the whites display a rich array of aromatics and bright fresh fruit flavours.
