Frankland Estate Chardonnay 2024 over-90 depending on the yearOrganically certified fruit for this wine was sourced from three different locations in the Isolation Ridge vineyard. The fruit is lightly pressed into stainless steel tanks and allowed to settle for 24 hours. The juice is then racked off its heavy lees to 500 litre French barrels for wild yeast fermentation. Some barrel stirring through fermentation and post fermentation give it added complexity. The wine spent 10 months on lees before being bottled.
