Saint Clair Omaka Reserve Chardonnay 2022

Colour: Pale gold Aroma: Perfumed aromas of charred oak, white peach and citrus with a hint of warm spice. Palate: Generous and rich with a creamy and textural mouthfeel. Flavours of white fleshy stonefruit and meringue combine with citrus notes and a hint of spice on the lingering finish. Ageing Potential:Drinking beautifully now, this wine will continue to evolve and reward over the next five to ten years with careful cellaring.

The fruit was lightly whole bunch pressed and the juice fermented in American oak barrels, forty-three percent of which were new, using selected yeast strains. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation, followed by ten months of aging on yeast lees with regular stirring. Only the very best barrels were selected for the Omaka Reserve Chardonnay.
