2021 CRFT Wines The Arranmore Vineyard Chardonnay, Piccadilly Valley
Sourced from just 8 rows of chardonnay grown high at 545m elevation in the Piccadilly Valley. Whole-bunch pressed, wild ferment with full solids; matured 7 months in (30% new) French oak. Certified organic. Makes itself at home immediately, with its soft lines and generous aromas of stone fruits, white peach, melon and nutty marzipan. Tasted months before release and it was already fully formed, packing lovely citrus, summer fruits and a nutty, buttery texture. JP 13% alc. RRP $55 / Drink 2022–2028 / CRFT Wines www.crftwines.com.au
