2018 Chardonnay Reserve "Painter of Light"
2018 Chardonnay Reserve "Painter of Light"
Since 2018, we have held back a single barrel of our core wines, our Painter of Light chardonnay, as well as our Nightjar pinot noir. These single barrels have had 2 years extra ageing to demonstrate the quality we can achieve with English pinor noir and chardonnay. Less than 300 bottles of each wine are produced.
The 2019 Painter of Light reserve chardonnay is made using grapes sourced from Clayhill Vineyard in Essex. The wine is matured for a total of 3 years prior to release, 24 months in barrel and 12 months in bottle, gaining texture and complexity allowing the potential of this wine to shine through. The chardonnay has an essence of refinement that shows the longer term ageing potential of our wines.
