2010 Witches Falls Granite Belt Wild Ferment Chardonnay

Witches Falls has a beautiful black-and-white label, with an abstract script representing a witch and her broom. The grapes come from Ballandean in the Granite Belt, grown by  Davydd and Cheryl Westlake.
Their hand-pixked, and the wine is kept in French oak with no intentinal melo-factic femerntatin.  Lees sterring took place until bottling. So says the label. A pale, lemon gold in colour, with citrus in the perfume, it has biscuit, cream and vanilla on the palate. Its medium buttery, since it has some oak. Witches Falls' Wild ferment range is terrific. My friends enjoyed it.
