AUSTRALIA WIDE SHIPPING INCLUDED

VINTAGE 2021 – a long, cool vintage well suited to sparkling production – gradual ripening and good acid retention.

VARIETAL 100% Chardonnay

APPEATANCE Pale straw colour with bright green tints, brilliant clarity, ultra-fine and persistent bead.

AROMA Bright and vibrant aromas of green apple and lemon blossom alongside more complex oyster shell, sea spray & kelp characters.

PALATE Made in the traditional method, this wine has spent over 2 years on lees in bottle prior to disgorgement. This extended contact time allows more complex characters and textures to evolve – with curd, cashew, oyster shell and wet stone characters complementing delicate citrus fruit notes. A beautifully soft and delicate mousse and fine, persistent bead carry the flavours and continually refresh the palate.

OAK DETAIL The base wine was partially fermented in seasoned French oak barriques to help build texture and mouthfeel.

CELLARING Ready for immediate drinking and will continue to evolve and drink well over the next 2-3 years.

FOOD PAIRING Drink as an aperitif, or with freshly shucked oysters.

ALCOHOL VOLUME 12.5%
ACIDITY pH 3.27; TA 7.5g/L
RESIDUAL SUGAR 3.6g/L

About Fermoy Estate

About Fermoy Estate is a premium winery nestled in the beautiful region of Wilyabrup, the ‘jewel in the crown’ of the famous wine making region of Margaret River, Western Australia. It was established in 1985 by John and Beryl Anderson.

Wilyabrup, with its rich, loamy, well-drained soils, perfect temperatures and quality old vines is a purveyor’s paradise. Little wonder it is considered the ‘golden triangle’ of Margaret River. The main varieties grown are Cabernet Sauvignon, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Shiraz.

The winery is located right next door to the vineyard, so the grapes can be processed without delay, ensuring their premium qualities are retained. The winery processes some 350 tonnes of grapes each year.

Fermoy is one of the original established vineyards of the Margaret River region, but continually seeks to incorporate new ideas and technology. This reflects Fermoy’s ongoing quest to bring you the very best wines, while ensuring that everything we do is environmentally sustainable.
