In 2018 just one tonne of the original, own-rooted, dry-farmed Chardonnay vines planted at Sanford & Benedict Vineyard in 1971 became available for lease, and Arnot-Roberts was 'elected' by a local producers to be the recipients of this prized fruit. The nose immediately shows off the signature mossy, river-rock minerality this site exudes. This tension carries through the palate, melding citrus and stone-fruit flavours with a subtle, creamy power.
