Mission Estate’s Barrique Reserve Chardonnay is rich and elegant. With toasty stone fruit aromatics, tropical fruit and flinty notes, it offers lovely complexities and texture.
Some portions of handpicked fruit were whole bunched pressed and went straight to barrel for fermentation. The grapes were all lightly pressed to ensure the delicate flavours were preserved and the wine further aged in barrel on yeast lees for ten months to provide optimum oak integration and complexity.
