Hartenberg Chardonnay 2024

Every batch from each of the morning picks as well as those of the individual parcels were kept separate in the cellar so as to aid quality selection when it came to assembling the final blend. Fermented and matured for 13 months in French Oak (225 l) 43% new, 33% in second fill, balance in third fill barrels.

The grapes for this wine were handpicked in the early morning of each of the four days of picking so as to capture the subtle primary flavours that the variety offers.

This wine can be enjoyed now, however, it can be aged for seven years from the date of vintage in the proper and appropriate conditions.
