WINEMAKER: CRAIG MCNAUGHT
Ghost Gum White is our flagship white wine, made up entirely of Chardonnay
from two unique vineyards on Stony Brook. 100% barrel-fermented in 60% new
French oak barriques and matured for 12 months, this wine is supremely focussed,
highlighting the brightness of Chardonnay grown in Franschhoek’s Bo-Hoek. The
early picking dates of the grapes ensure lovely acidity and ageing potential. The juice
was fermented at high turbidity to create richness and length in the wine, without
the need for lees-stirring.
TASTING NOTES
Vibrant, golden yellow in colour with glints of light green. The nose is led by bright
lemon and lime, with a healthy dose of toast and butterscotch backing up the natural
fruit. There is unmistakable harmony between the bright acidity and rich, oaky
finish in this Chardonnay, making it a great partner for creamy pasta dishes, cheeses
and cured meats.
