100% Chardonnay
The sixth vintage of The Agnes is concentrated and beautifully balanced. The nose is wonderfully expressive with notes of lime, grapefruit, nectarine and ripe peach. The palate is intense and layered with a strong fruit core and lovely fresh acidity.

The Agnes is produced using the traditional method of transferring the whole grape clusters straight from harvesting into the press and running the juice off into a settling tank. The juice is then transferred the next day into 228-litre French oak barrels, 10% new. Fermentation occurs naturally in barrel, where it remains for 9 months before bottling. No SO2 or enzymes are added prior to fermentation.
