Felton Road Bannockburn Chardonay 2024

Felton Road Bannockburn Chardonnay 2024

• Region: Central Otago
• Sub-Region: Bannockburn

Vineyard Sourced from Felton Road's three estate vineyards: Elms, Cornish Point, and MacMuir. These sites are farmed biodynamically, and the glacial schists and deep silts of Bannockburn provide a unique mineral energy to the old-vine fruit.

Wine A masterclass in restraint and elegance. This Chardonnay is fermented with indigenous yeasts and shows a crystalline purity of citrus and white blossom. It is tightly structured with a lean mineral drive and a salty, lingering finish.

Food Pairings

• Crab linguine with chili and lemon
• Roasted vegetable tart with goat cheese
• Pan-seared scallops with a cauliflower purée
