Sailor Seeks Horse Small Wonder Chardonnay 2024

Description

Product DescriptionSubtle texture and site expression define this cool-climate Tasmanian Chardonnay. The 2024 Sailor Seeks Horse Small Wonder Chardonnay is made from certified-organic I10V1 clone fruit grown on the estate’s Small Wonder Vineyard in the Huon Valley. A warmer season in 2024 has brought a touch more ripeness, delivering lifted floral aromatics and a fuller fruit spectrum, while retaining the vineyard’s hallmark mineral clarity. Unfined and made without malolactic conversion, the wine balances precision and weight. The palate moves between slatey tension and creamy texture, with white stone fruit and citrus at its core. This is a Chardonnay shaped by careful farming and minimal intervention — restrained, expressive, and quietly detailed. A natural match for grilled spanner crab, poached chicken or fresh ricotta with herbs. Tasting NotesNOSE– Ripe and floralWhite peach, nectarine and citrus blossom with gentle aromatic lift.
