Gutter&Stars, All My Friends Chardonnay, Essex, England, United Kingdom 2022

Sourced from the Great Wheatley Vineyard in the Crouch Valley Peninsula, this single-site Chardonnay was whole-bunch pressed and fermented in used Burgundy barrels. A ripe, tropical nose of mango and yellow peach, with a touch of creamy lemon sherbets and banana peel. Saline on the palate with rounded but high acidity for freshness. Poised yellow citrus and peachy fruits are seasoned with a pinch of spice. Elegant and profound.
