{"product_id":"oraterra-chardonnay-2023","title":"Oraterra Chardonnay 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe vision is to ‘go beyond fruit’, where the aromatics represent a feeling of texture. There is a well-defined oak influence, that embraces the wine. This is combined with more recognisable notes of nougat, fennel seed and a peach-like perfume that show themselves upon closer look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe mouthfeel is soft, plush and round initially. Then the sense of direction comes through the acidity that salivates and further activates the taste buds. There is a fine balance throughout the mouthfeel of fruit weight, creaminess and acidity that are harmonised by the extended time in large-sized oak barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can find a classic approach but with a tight lens that brings freshness and playfulness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\nHand-harvested fruit was pressed the following day, cold. After a light settling, the juice was racked into large format barrels, 300- 500 litres, for a spontaneous ferment. Spring malolactic fermentation started naturally in October\/November, the wine remained in barrel until the 2024 harvest started. It was then transferred into large 1000-litre oak vessels for another 4 months of maturation on lees.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oraterra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46532399825144,"sku":"14639","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/2712\/5752\/files\/OraterraChardonnay2023.png?v=1765411588","url":"https:\/\/checkout.reservecellar.com.au\/products\/oraterra-chardonnay-2023","provider":"Reserve Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
