La Ferme de Sato 'Le Chant du Vent' Central Otago Chardonnay 2022
The fruit for this wine comes entirely from the chardonnay block within Sato's 3.5ha of vines. It is hand picked and basket pressed before fermenting in French oak barriques. It spends a total of 16 months in oak, around 18% of which is new. The resulting chardonnay has a succulent and deliciously smart nose, with notes of nougat, lime, apricot and straw. With air, a note of vanilla pod and charred peaches comes through. The palate has a notable core of fruit , with apricot, lime and pear notes. The lovely creamy texture helps to provide a full and plush mouthfeel but doesn't overpower the fresh and focused acidity, which keeps things fresh and tight. Notes of straw, pepper, pears, white blossom, elderflower and pine build towards the finish. Worth decanting to allow the wine to show at its fullest but this is quite a remarkable little wine.
