Carefully nurtured from vine to glass, Single Vineyard wines represent the pinnacle of De Bortoli's Yarra Valley Estate. Each vineyard parcel is selected for quality and typicity to create fine wines with charm and character. This is the second single vineyard chardonnay release from their A7 vineyard. The grapes are hand picked, whole bunch crushed, pressed and allowed to settle overnight. The turbid juice is then racked to older French oak casks where it undergoes natural fermentation. Lees are stirred in late Autumn and then left to rest on lees until late November.
