Personalised Snake + Herring Tough Love Chardonnay 2023 12.5% 750ml

The Snake + Herring brand is a wine safari searching for remarkable grapes from West Australian Vineyards. The Search has begun, and our grape balloon manned by Snake (our winemaker) and Herring (our navigator) represent this.

The southwest of WA is a viticultural treasure map as there are vineyard jewels scattered throughout. We seek for blocks within vineyards that really shine; they may seem dull when diluted by the bordering lesser dirt. The search is to find and polish these often overlooked gems and present a treasure chest of different jewels: pristine, crystalline Rieslings; crisp, radiant, multi-faceted Chardonnays; alluring, perfumed Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon; dark, exotic, hedonistic Shiraz; brilliant, regal displays of Cabernets and blends.

AROMA

The 2022 Tough Love Chardonnay has ample white nectarine, nougat, guava with a little grapefruit.

PALATE

Powerful yet balanced on the palate with crisp acidity, subtle oak and brioche complexity. A bright juicy fruit forward style with plenty of layers for the chardonnay trainspotters.

GRAPES/BLEND

100% Chardonnay.

VINIFICATION

Hand and machine picked, whole bunch pressed where handpicked; whole solids juices and wild ferments; 80% barrel ferment in new (14%) and used puncheons; aged on lees for 8 months in tank and barrel.

VINTAGE NOTES

The 2022 season started early but a cool spring meant flowering and set was delayed. Chardonnay however set very good crops and the cool nights maintained fresh vibrant acidity. The hot spell in January brought picking forward again but the Chardonnays came in with great fruit, freshness and balance.
