Wine Description
A combination of barrel and tank fermentation and the stirring of lees on oak achieves maximum softness and integration.
To retain all the natural assertiveness and flavor, no malolactic fermentation takes place. Clonal
influences in the vineyard have been very important, providing smaller berries and enhanced
flavor intensity.
The result of all of this is delicious Oyster Bay Marlborough Chardonnays with
concentrated aromas and flavors of ripe citrus and stonefruit, balanced with subtle oak, and a
creamy texture to finish. Oyster Bay Marlborough Chardonnay truly captures
the character of Marlborough with pure, incisive, ripe fruit flavors.
