Lambert Crudo Chardonnay 2023 750ml
Lambert Crudo Chardonnay 2023 750ml
The Chardonnay fruit comes off Denton’s east-northeast-facing slope of granitic sand over heavy granite boulders. As is the norm, the 2022 was whole-bunch pressed and wild-yeast fermented with no temperature control. It saw full malo and old oak (2,000-litre French oak foudre) maturation for three to four months, then zero fining or filtration and only minimal sulphur at bottling.
Like most decisions the Lamberts make, the addition of sulphur has been well thought out. Not adding sulphur at the start of the process can allow for alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation to happen simultaneously, something Luke finds crucial to developing complexity with his Chardonnay.
