[SOLD-OUT] Pierro Vintage Reserve Chardonnay 2015 GIFT

97 POINTS - WINE FRONT!     
PIERRO'S SELF-PROCLAIMED BEST EVER CHARDONNAY, IN A LOVELY COMMEMORATIVE GIFT BOX!  

"Vintage Reserve is a vineyard and barrel selection, released after four years in the winery’s cellar.
Mixed citrus, melon and stone fruit, whiff of struck match, honey and white flowers. Powerful, but not over-done, lime and just ripe pineapple, pumice stone texture, tang of sweet citrus acidity lights it up, toasty oak noted, but integrating, finish is effortlessly long. Superstar. I’m dithering between 96 and 97 points, but the quiet authority and length, I think, have convinced me. Drink 2020-2030+" - Wine Front

"2015 Pierro VR Chardonnay is the cream of the crop and mainly from the oldest vines planted in 1980. Hand picked and hand sorted and then gently cold pressed to release the finest free run juice which was fermented in Burgundian French oak barriques 70% of which were new and 30% one year old. Then matured in these barriques for 12 months with regular battonage and malolactic fermentation (95%). It was bottled in May 2016 and then stored in our temperature controlled cellars to allow the wine to age gracefully before release. Delicate but intense flavours and aromas with a long life ahead of it.

I think the finest Chardonnay we have made." - Pierro
