A finely structured cool-climate Chardonnay shaped by a challenging Huon Valley vintage. Sailor Seeks Horse’s 2024 Chardonnay comes from ultra-low yielding vines, with fruit carefully selected after a dry, demanding growing season. Whole bunch pressed and wild fermented, it spent 16 months in barrel, building quiet depth and texture while remaining unfined and minimally handled.
The palate is composed and layered, with white stonefruit and citrus wrapped in a subtle savoury edge. A fine chalky line runs through the wine, bringing precision and length. There’s a natural balance here between texture and restraint, making it compelling now while rewarding with time in the cellar. A refined match for roast chicken, grilled fish or creamy pasta.
