Robert Oatley Finisterre Chardonnay 2018

Hand picked grapes for our Finisterre wine are selected from the North and South of some of Margaret River's finest vineyards in the sub regions of Wilyabrup and Karridale (where the Southern Ocean meets the Indian ocean) Reminiscent of a white Burgundy, this wine from Larry Cherubino has exotic aromas of nectarine and lemon peel. The new French barriques give the palate its rich and refined texture and the fine acidity from the Southern vineyard its complex citrus and mineral finish. A lovely match for shellfish, especially lobster.

The grapes are hand picked in the cool of the morning and whole bunch pressed into new French oak barrels. Indigenous (wild) yeasts start the fermentation.
