'Sara' 2023 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay
'Sara' 2023 Barrel Fermented Chardonnay
Grapes from Essex, UK
Wine fully made in London, UK
What's the wine like?
Salty, mineral, and lemon peel-y with a unique and differentiating English twang. Some straw, spice and nut notes complete the aromatic framework of this wine. The cooler climate and winemaking touches have matched the English acidity with a creamy oak texture.
So how was Sara made?
40% was whole bunch pressed and 60% was destemmed and fermented on the skin. Both fractions fermented in stainless steel and then transferred to a mix of old and new French oak for malolactic fermentation and ageing. Weekly batonnage was applied. It was bottled after light filtration and minimal SO2 addition.
Who is Sara?
She’s a retired French teacher (70) and she lives with her husband down in East Sheen, SW London. Make sure you don’t get your le’s and la’s mixed up. Oh, and it’s ‘Madame Gray’ to you lot. Don’t call her Sara in class please!
Note: This wine, like all our wines, is vegan friendly. They are made without the use of animal based winemaking products.
