Franco d'Anna has always regarded it as a one-off: it comes in a fortnight after every other Chardonnay on the place, which goes a long way to explaining its ripeness and complexity. Hand-picked fruit was destemmed, lightly crushed and pressed, then spent twelve months in barrel with 25 per cent new oak, a winter settling in tank, and roughly a quarter of it through malolactic conversion. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBalanced and savoury, with grapefruit, nectarine, a flick of struck match and oatmeal from the lees. Refined and persistent. Serve at 11 to 12 degrees with roast pork, crab linguine or a mild washed-rind cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
