Jackson Estate 'Shelterbelt' Marlborough Chardonnay 2010
Bright citrus fruit and spice together with waves of savoury lees driven aromatics flow to a generously fruited and finely textured palate. A lovely core of ripe calcerous acidity lends the wine great tension, balance and length, and frames the wonderful fruit purity of this single vineyard site. A skilfully made wine using just the right proportions of new French Oak (25%), malolactic faermetnation and natural yeasts.
