2021 Fighting Gully Road Smiths’ Vineyard Chardonnay 750ml

Single Bottle Price: $79.95/bottle

6pk Price: $ 74.95/bottle

From vines planted in 78, fermented and matured for 18 months in new and used French oak, partial mlf. The power, intensity and depth of the wine comes from the low yield of these venerable vines. Ripe white nectarine/peach is offset by grapefruit pith and flinty acidity.’

Black label. A complex and compelling chardonnay. At its heart is a mineral, beeswax and slatey core that lays the foundation for the wine, contributing an effortless, natural balance. To that, the winemaker has brought ripe, citrus and stone fruits, introduced some spicy oak and a nougat-like texture. Brings both power and delicacy to the glass.
