Saint Clair Omaka Reserve Chardonnay 2018 75cl
With a pale gold presence in the glass the Omaka Reserve Chardonnay from Saint Clair will tempt you in to smell the fragrant peach, toasted spice and subtle vanilla aroma. On the palate it s concentrated, elegant and silky with fresh peach, ripe grapefruit and biscuit notes
During winemaking the fruit was lightly whole bunch pressed and the juice fermented in American oak barrels, fifty per cent of which were new, using selected yeast strains. The wine underwent malolactic fermentation, followed by ten months aging on yeast lees with regular stirring. Only the very best barrels were selected for the Omaka Reserve Chardonnay.
With the grapes being sourced primarily from Saint Clair’s vineyards in Marlborough’s Omaka valley where a combination of warm days, cool nights and clay based soils contribute to greater retention of fruit flavours. The fruit is a blend of Chardonnay clones, predominantly Mendoza and Burgundian Clone 95. The vines were monitored carefully during ripening and hand harvested at optimum flavour maturity and physiological ripeness.
Awarded Gold at Sommelier Wine Awards 2018.
