This 22 hectare property has the oldest planting of Cabernet Sauvignon - almost 20 years old - and has the highest altitude vineyard at 1246 metres above sea level. They only use grapes from their own estate and this Chardonnay is bursting with pineapple and pear flavours. Lovely texture from the oak but well-integrated, and the tropical fruit is mirrored on the nose. Quite a forward, yet vibrant, style.
