Element Winery 2016 Chardonnay

This Chardonnay is hand picked and sorted, before whole cluster pressing. It settles in stainless for 24 hours and is then racked to equal parts neutral puncheon and steel where it undergoes spontaneous fermentation. Lees are stirred every few months and the wine is racked several times before bottling, unfiltered and unfined.
