The Sherwood 2023 Chardonnay was produced from selected parcels of fruit grown on our Glasnevin vineyard in Waipara, North Canterbury. The fruit was machine harvested, in excellent condition, and left on skins for a short period. The fruit was gently pressed then racked to French oak barriques for indigenous fermentation and seven months lees aging. The parcels were then blended together, lightly fined and filtered prior to bottling.
