One Chain Vineyards – The Googly Chardonnay

Description

One Chain Vineyards works with growers to source fruit from some of the most established regions of South Eastern Australia. The Character Series has a range of beautifully produced and packaged wines, benefitting from ultra premium quality fruit.  Each wine has great varietal definition coupled with  vibrancy and freshness. These are wines that are immediately pleasing, yet authentic expression of the variety and place. The wines are inspired by a love for the Australian national sport. Indeed, the name One Chain is the imperial measurement for 22 yards, or the length of a cricket pitch. However, you really dont need to be a connoisseur of the game to be bowled over by the restrained, elegant style of this Chardonnay.

Fruit is harvested at night when it is cooler, then immediately transported to the winery to be de-juiced, ensuring minimal skin contact occurs. Every effort is taken to reduce phenolic extraction from the skins, minimising the need for fining. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures then aged 2 months of French Oak.  A crisp refreshing Chardonnay, with aroma of grapefruit, apple and lime. well balanced, with tropical fruit and melon on the palate before presenting a vibrant textured finish.

Perfect with Grilled Chicken, Seafood and Shellfish.
