The 2020 Bergman Chardonnay has been barrel fermented with indigenous yeast. There is peach, biscuit, toast, oak and subtle vanilla. A small portion under went malolactic fermentiation. It is vibrant and fruit driven, hence it is an excellent food wine.
All the grapes for the ‘Bergman’ Chardonnay are estate grown. They were harvested from Ohiti Estate which is owned by Brookfields Vineyards, and from of course the Brookfields home block, adjacent to the winery. The ‘Bergman’ Chardonnay takes its name from the ‘Ingrid Bergman’ Roses which are planted in front of the winery. The Ohiti Estate grapes were harvested on the 15th of March and the home block was the 28th of March.
Immediately after harvesting, and arrival at the winery, the grapes were pressed, and the juice immediately chilled. Following settling some of the barrels were inoculated with a selected yeast strain, and the balance were left to ferment with wild yeast. The juice was then racked into predominantly French oak barriques, with some American oak, for fermentation and subsequent aging on its lees. There was partial malolactic fermentation - and a total time in oak was 9 months, with a small portion of new oak in this vintage.
Food Pairing: Butterflied roast chicken served with a herb-crust & vegetables.
