Information about "Kershaw Deconstructed Lake District Bokkeveld Shale CY 96 2019"
The Kershaw Deconstructed Lake District Bokkeveld Shale CY96 reveals itself through an enticing profile bursting with vivid citrus notes. Crafted from meticulously selected Chardonnay clones and nurtured in the distinctive Bokkeveld shale terroir, this wine boasts a lively acidity and reveals nuances of orange peel and delicate peach blossoms. The intricate interplay between minerality and opulence is further emphasized by the Cartref soils—comprising decomposed granite and quartz gravel—imparting both finesse and an exceptional fruit intensity. With time, the bouquet evolves into a symphony of balance that captivates the palate.
Die Trauben wurden von Hand gepflückt, in kleine Körbe gelegt und direkt in die Presse gekippt, bevor sie sanft gepresst wurden.
Dem ungeklärten Saft wurden keine Enzyme oder Hefe zugesetzt, so dass er spontan vergoren wurde.
Der Wein ruhte vier Monate lang in Fässern aus burgundischer Eiche, bevor er vorsichtig geschwefelt wurde und weitere sieben Monate reifte.
