Don Nelson Chardonnay
100% Chardonnay
The best of Chardonnays were harvested from several organically farmed vineyards from around Nelson, some planted on rich Moutere Clay, others planted on lighter soils. A small amount also comes from Alex’s own vineyard, which he farms primarily with biodynamic practices. The grapes are gently whole-cluster pressed into a combination of old barrel and amphora for both fermentation and élevage.
