Dorrance Chardonnay Cuvee Anais is named after Christophe's youngest daughter, Anais. Sourced from a Robertson single vineyard, this wine is produced using the traditional method of transferring the whole grape clusters straight from harvesting into the press and running the juice off into a settling tank. Natural fermentation and 2/3 aged in second-hand 228-litre French oak barrels and 1/3 in concrete eggs for 11 months. No sulphur dioxide or enzymes are added prior to fermentation. Bottled at 13.5%. (Bottle size 750ml)
Nose: Fresh and floral, with notes lemon and kumquat, as well as orange blossom. Subtle nuances of hazelnuts and buttered popcorn.
Palate: Beautiful bright entry with notes of melon and lemon peel. Beautiful creamy but elegant mouthfeel.
Finish: Medium length, with a refreshing minerality that keeps the wine focused.
