A long-time favourite variety of winemaker Tamra Kelly to make (and drink!) With Kelly Washington Chardonnay they are constantly striving to strike a fine balance between structure, reduction and acidity. The 2018 is quite subtle on the nose, offering mealy and smoky notes. The palate is highly textured and layered, yet supported by fine boned acidity and classic bready notes. A classic cool climate Chardonnay.

Having had the first vintage under their belt, it was wonderful to commence Vintage 2018 having had some experience with the plots and the wines that have translated. Although winemakers did not experience the challenging nature of cool weather over the ripening period in 2018, they did face another difficult vintage with some challenging intermittent rain events, so it was crucial to have a great deal of vigilance and care with picking decisions, and sorting of the fruit. Only the best bunches were picked and made it to be pressed. The lovely Rapaura Chardonnay fruit was extremely low yielding, so they were happy to make the decision to pick early to retain vibrancy and acidity.

100% Whole Bunch pressed, minimum settling for a portion and the other portion racked directly to barrel. 100% in French oak barrels – 25 % new French oak puncheons, 20% 2nd fill, 25% 3rd fill, 30% in neutral oak. 11 months on full lees, in the above barrels and puncheons. Occasionally stirred. No fining.

The most amazing blanket EVER!!!
I just got this yesterday and I’m obsessed already. It’s the softest thing I’ve ever touched. The reverse side is also a super soft velour-like feel. I got the Marble Charcoal Grey in 60x80. It looks exactly like the photos and it’s truly a bubble design too. Looks so good draped across my bed. And it’s HEAVY! Literally feels like a weighted blanket on top of being unbelievably soft and cozy. Now I want to get the largest size for even more heavy, snuggly bliss. I slept with it last night along with my normal blanket and I fell asleep much quicker than usual. It does shed a bit on my black clothes but I don’t even care lol. The packaging it arrives in makes it wonderfully gift-able and also lets you know it’s a women-owned company. Didn’t arrive with any bad smells either. All the stitching is immaculate, really everything about this blanket is. I got it on a Black Friday deal for $20% off at $51, it’s worth every penny and feels like a steal to be honest. The quality is unmatched. I’ll have to refrain from buying every single color!

Worth every penny
Color: Ivory White, Size: 90"x90"
This blanket is so soft and comforting, I just love it! It arrived sealed in a plastic bag and fluffed up instantly, I briefly put it in the dryer on low and it came out absolutely perfect. There was no odd smell, no loose threads, it was very well made and looks so inviting on my bed! Definitely a great buy that will keep you warm.
