2018 Bilancia Tiratore Chardonnay
The First Vintage of Tiratore Chardonnay
★★★★★ Michael Cooper
92/100 Jnacis Robinson
Bilancia Tiratore (to-ra-to-re) hunter/marksman is a new release from this famous producer and made in very limited volumes. If you have tasted their La Collina Syrah, then say no more, you will not want to miss out on this new Chardonnay. A single vineyard Chardonnay from vines originally planted in 2001 on the lower slopes, terraces, and flat, old riverbed of the La Collina vineyard. 100% hand-picked, whole bunch pressed to French oak puncheons and barriques for fermentation using indigenous yeast. The wine spent 11 months in oak prior to bottling unfined and without stabilisation and the only additive was low levels of sulphur.
Chardonnay from Hawkes Bay
