[SOLD-OUT] Inkerman Road by Sorrenberg Chardonnay 2020

  

"The 2020 vintage was dry and hot. Yields were lower than normal due to the conditions and the vines surprisingly handled it fairly well. With careful management, the fruit we did produce was looking good, we had a couple of days of smoke lingering due to the 2020 bushfires. We made the decision to continue with the harvest and adopt some of the different methods trialed and researched for such conditions. Light pressings meant very small quantities were produced this year under our Inkerman Road label. Wines were tested and free smoke compounds are minimal however there are some bound compounds present.

 The 2020 Inkerman Road Chardonnay shows lemon and peach on the nose, which follows through to the palate, with nice oak, mealy characteristics, subtle minerality and well balanced acid it creates a lingering mouth feel. Like our other Inkerman Road wines it is ready to drink now. The grapes comes from our estate and were handpicked, chilled, crushed and lightly pressed followed by French oak barrel fermentation." - Sorrenberg
