In this fresh and elegant wine with its peach-blossom fragrance, the aim is to evoke those bedtime butterfly kisses of their beautiful baby girl, so the oaking (10 months in this case) is subtle, serving only to spice the stone fruit, melon, and citrus flavours with hints of hazelnuts and vanilla cream. It’s beautifully delicate and understated, with a pure, slightly piquant and lingering ‘mineral’ finish promising great charm well beyond the toddler years.

For current Muratie owners Rijk and Kim Melck, there could be only one name for their Chardonnay, made from the free-run juice of hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed grapes and fermented naturally.

In the cellar

The grapes were hand harvested before being whole bunch pressed. The juice was chilled to about 8 ËšC for two days. The clear juice was then taken off the sediment and pumped into 500 litre barrels where it underwent a combination of inoculated and natural fermentation. After the alcoholic fermentation (40% wild fermentation) the wine underwent 60% malolactic fermentation and spent 10 months in French oak before before it was bottled and labelled.
