A soft, delicate, honied perfume of orchard fruit, even Stone fruit, yellow apples with nutmeg, almonds, and lychee. Rich on the palate with crisp acidity, the lush texture is packed with spice; cream; light truffled notes. There is a savoury stoniness in the mouth; a fine subtlety to this vintage: it finishes long and pure with a subtle, savoury grittiness.
Winemaker Notes
Welcome to the Renaissance of the Claystone Terrace single-vineyard wines! Both the Claystone Chardonnay and Pinot Noir blocks – like the Grand Clos blocks just a few hundred metres away - happen to both come from the extreme western side of the vineyard: a happenstance of aspect and geology.
