Swinging Bridge Caldwell Lane Chardonnay 2021 12.4% 750ml
This beautiful Chardonnay is handpicked from the finest parcels from the Block A Caldwell Lane vineyard. An elegant wine that will age with grace. The fruit is selectively hand-picked into slotted bins and Tom has selected premium french oak barrels (20% new) to age this signature wine and heighten fruit characteristics and deliver beautiful round oak flavours in the wine.
