2021 Onannon Tuerong Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay

We are looking for ripe fruit in the grapefruit/pear spectrum when picking – always by hand. The fruit was pressed after being cooled in fridge overnight, allowed to oxidise (no SO2), and into barrel for fermantation.

Post primary ferment we allowed the wine to go through 100% malaolactic fermentation and stirred occasionaly during maturation. 33% New French oak for about 10 months. No fining. - Will Byron, Onannon
