Saint Clair Unoaked Marlborough Chardonnay (2009)

This refreshing wine is cool-fermented in tanks, using malolactic fermentation to add complexity and soften the acidity. The 2009 vintage (3*) is creamy, with a strong ‘malo’ influence and restrained, melon-like fruit characters. It’s a full-bodied wine, with plenty of flavour and a rounded finish.
