Stonier Chardonnay 2024 13.5% 750ml
Tasting Notes
Appearance
Pale straw.
Aroma
Layered and complex with a bouquet of cashew nuts, straw, citrus, honey and sourdough.
Palate
Typical Merricks saline thread through the palate of this wine, balanced with citrus and riper stone fruit characters. Fresh zesty acidity and nice palate weight.
Vinification
Fermented in a mix of French oak puncheons (10% new with a large percentage of one and two year), together with some older barriques, for a total maturation period of 10 months, followed by time in tank after blending.
Vintage notes
The mild conditions and lower yields of the 2024 season allowed riper flavours and balanced acid to occur at lower sugar levels. This combined with the lovely a saline thread that we are seeing across all of our Chardonnay’s makes this wine incredibly moreish.
