Eight at the Gate - Single Vineyard Chardonnay 2022 (750ml) Alsace Grand Cru and pushing bloom back byA single vineyard Chardy from Wrattonbully fruit, which was fermented in tank on lees, with occasional batonnage. A very pale yellow, the aromas swirl around with rockmelon, stonefruit and tropical notes with some peach and citrus. Good focus here, there is an attractive minerally, almost chalky, support. A wine of medium length and fine acidity. Enjoy it now and for the next two to three years.
