Information about "Springfield Wild Yeast Chardonnay 2024"
The Springfield Wild Yeast Chardonnay 2024 stands as a true representation of its terroir, crafted exclusively through spontaneous fermentation with wild yeast. This unoaked Chardonnay unfurls a captivating aroma of ripe pineapple and pear, complemented by a pronounced minerality that encapsulates the distinctive characteristics of the Robertson wine region. Fermented in underground concrete tanks, the process spans six to nine months, allowing for intricate complexity and depth to unfold. By avoiding filtration, it enhances the wine's bold character, presenting a remarkable profile that resonates with nuances often elusive in commercially produced wines, making each sip a celebration of both craftsmanship and the land.
The grapes for this sensational Chardonnay were handpicked at night and fermented for 60 days in concrete tanks using only naturally occurring wild yeast. Malolactic fermentation occurred 100% naturally.
