2023 Paperwasp Chardonnay

‘The Dance of the Paper Wasp’ is familiar to many a backpacker during harvest in this vineyard. These wasps love to nest in the canopy of our vines at the exact time of hand harvesting. 

Hand picked and partially whole bunch pressed. The juice was transferred to barrels for a mix of wild and cultured yeast fermentation. The wine was barrel aged in 10% new French oak and 90% 1 to 6-year old French oak, with 15% undergoing MLF. Over the 8 months in barrel the wine underwent monthly lees stirring. 

Drink now to 10+ years
