The wine offers lovely fruit purity together with silky texture and generousity, making it highly enjoyable. This ripe Chardonnay shows peach and tropical aromas coupled with toasted grains, caramel and spice from French oak. Stonefruit and biscuit flavours are balanced by a long citrus finish with hints of toffee and caramel.
The lithe Skybolt is a capitavating combination; it's a biplane with an open cockpit and wooden wings, built for aerobatics. Equally captivating the Skybolt Chardonnay is an elegant style with fruit richness, seductive oak and a succulent palate that is rounded and creamy.
The grapes were harvested from the Clone 15, Mendoza and Clone 6 Chardonnay blocks. Cropping levels were kept to a minimum of 11 tonnes/ha. The different clones were harvested at optimum ripeness, determined by both analysis as well as flavour. These clones have been specially selected for their generous fruit characters, palate weight and richness.
A combination of free fun juice predominantely from their original plantings of Clone 15 and Mendoza Chardonnay with a small amount of younger Clone 15. All batches were hand harvested, pressed, and fermented seperately in a mixture of French oak barriques and puncheons. Selected yeasts and indigenous fermentation add complexity to the wine. Lees stirring in barrel took place for 11 months to increase palate weight and roundness. The wine was racked from barrel using inert gas to make a blend in tank prior to being stabilised and filtered for bottling.
Food Pairing: Ideal to enjoy on its own or a perfect complement to seafood, white meats and risotto.
