Light lemon and ripe green apple, hints of honeysuckle and vanilla. 100% Chardonnay.
Inviting and fragrant nose of citrus and bright minerality, together with vanilla notes. Explodes into a palate of grapefruit, flint and a lick of vanilla cream. This wine will continue to benefit from bottle age.

The Vineyard
The 9 hectares of vines at Ancre Hill Estates are inspected by DEMETER every year to ensure all cultural practices in the Vineyard go above and beyond Organic standards in line with the full Biodynamic accreditation achieved in 2014.
Biodynamic practices employed in the vineyards allow the vines to find the balance of life forces necessary for healthy growth and quality of production. A regular spray programme based on Organic and Biodynamic
principles is employed utilising wild plant tisanes made on the Estate and biostimulants. Insecticides,Pesticides and Herbicides are not used
at all. Extensive canopy management is practiced, maximising air flow through the canopy and sun and light exposure to suit the season. This is further assisted by the Geneva Double Curtain trellising system designed for cooler climates. A careful programme of composting and cultivation ensures the
development and maintenance of a healthy micro-organism population in the soils, negating the need for petro-chemical fertilisers. Co-plantation and the promotion of wild flora and fauna help maintain the balance of the eco-system and biodiversity at the Estate.
