Clover Hill Foudre MV

Enjoy now or cellar 5 - 10 years.

Taking its name from the 58 hL large format French oak vessels the wine matures in, this Multi-Vintage Cuvee Foudre shows the true delights of oak aged Chardonnay. A light golden hue in the glass with a toasty and brioche filled nose leads to sea spray, flinty minerality and citrus fruits on the palate.   The use of large format oak allows the varietal characteristics of Chardonnay to shine with a supporting role played by Pinot Noir adding volume to the mid palate.

A blend of 96/4% chardonnay/pinot noir matured in large 58hL French oak foudre. Pale straw with an energetic bead and mousse. Aromas of dried meadow flowers lead in over fruit characters of baked and fresh apple, citrus and peach fruits. Hints of brioche, sea spray, mushroom broth, stone, dried honey and clover blossom. A light biscuity complexity joins in on the palate, which is tautly stretched with a wicked mineral seam of acidity and a scorching, precise line. Finishes creamy with taut apple and lemon fruits.
