Sourced exclusively from our estate and with a commitment to sustainable viticulture, we craft wines of precision with unique character, complexity and elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePicking commenced with some of our younger vine fruit and was completed with the picking of our old vine Mendoza clone fruit. Each clone being picked at optimal ripeness, while also maintaining good acidity. All fruit was whole bunch pressed and settled in tank overnight before being transferred to a mixture of barrels and puncheons for 100% wild fermentation. The wine was left to age in barrel and undergo 100% malolactic fermentation. After 11 months in barrel the wine was blended in tank where it aged on lees for a further five months before being filtered and bottled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Chardonnay is a wine of elegance, complexity, depth and class. Characters of white nectarine are complemented by intriguing gun smoke and flint on the nose while concentrated layers of vanilla bean and nectarine enrich the palate. Subtle minerality and restrained acidity compliment the French oak toastiness which is sure to delight even the fussiest of Chardonnay devotees.\" \u003cstrong\u003eWinery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/1537\/0392\/files\/Trophy_480x480.png?v=1727321876\" alt=\"\" style=\"margin-bottom: 16px; float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e \u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Isabel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67877899698328,"sku":null,"price":25.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/1537\/0392\/files\/IsabelSVChardonnay.png?v=1793660598","url":"https:\/\/winefreedom.co.nz\/products\/isabel-estate-single-vineyard-chardonnay-2024","provider":"Wine Freedom Dunedin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
