Top Notes For
Ceccherini Cristiano

Only 1500 bottles produced.
A parcel quite unique of the vineyard where bunches retained a higher acidity.
Berries are smaller, but never split.
This juice in production can bear quite a bit of new oak that still you can't feel in the final wine.
At Auntsfield they don't do malolactic fermentation with Chardy.
They naturally have creamy, textural wine from the site giving the richness.
This is an amazing expression of Marlborough Chardonnay; clay soil makes the difference.
Long and stunning.
