STILL Chardonnay 2022

“I don’t like chardonnay, but I do like Chablis”, it’s a phrase we hear often in the wine world.

The reason people say it is because they remember the heavily oaked Chardonnay of the 90s. In fact, Chablis wines are crafted from the same Chardonnay grape, but with minimal oak influence. So, in reality, when people express this sentiment they are indicating a preference for un-oaked chardonnay. Which just so happens to be the style of our Hattingley Still White…

After the success of our first vintage of our Still White, this 100% chardonnay wine is wonderfully aromatic. Pale lemon in colour, it is wonderfully vibrant, with aromas of lime, blossom, candied pear and tart nectarine on the nose. Citrus and green apple continue on the palate, along with notes of elderflower, which are complimented by a natural bright acidity. A fine and rich mouthfeel ends in a long and refreshing finish

Lightly oaked to retain its freshness and fruity profile, the wine underwent a process called malolactic fermentation to soften and add to its mouthwatering creaminess. Join us for a Winery Tour and Tasting to learn more about the winemaking process here at Hattingley Valley.
