Density and freshness with aromas of lemon curd and fresh flowers ? a bit of spice but the oak influence is well integrated underpinned by a marked mineral component. The fruit comes from the base of one specific lava flow in the celebrated Seven Springs Vineyard is vinified in 500L puncheons and sees a year in cask (10% new) and a further six months in tank. Superbly balanced and could age for a decade or more: impressive!

The 2017 Chardonnay La Source is scented of poached pears honeyed apples hazelnut and crushed shell with gentle floral nuances. The palate is medium-bodied and silky and it explodes with fresh fruit flavors permeated by a wicked line of crushed rock minerality and matched by tangy acidity finishing very long and energetic.
