 Adelaide Hills, Chardonnay (100%)
 The Name
 During summer, native Bearded Dragon
 lizards find their way into grapes destined
 for the winery. Luckily for the lizards, the
 gentleness of our crusher allows them to
 pass through the ordeal slightly shaken, but
 unharmed.
 The Vintage
 The preceding winter was beautifully wet,
 f
 lushing the soil of salts and filling the
 soil profile. Spring too was above average,
 with rainfalls up until November which
 was almost completely dry. November was
 hotter than normal which upset the setting
 of berries. Just as well as the bunch number
 was way up. Two inches of rain
 in early February was much appreciated
 by the relatively large crops. Where crops
 where smaller, berry size grew. The heat
 produced a fast flowering, set, and speedy
 berry development leading to an early
 veraison and the equal earliest start of
 vintage on record. A few days in a row
 around 35°C in February rapidly ripened
 early lower cropping vineyards. From then
 on, the vintage was mild and dry. Average
 temperatures for autumn were down. Some
 nice 30°C days late March and early April
 helped finish ripening of bigger crops and
 late ripening varieties.

 The Winemaking
 Small batches of grapes are gently crushed
 before being pressed in specially designed
 stainless steel basket presses. Gentle
 extraction of the juice is critical in these
 stages to retain the delicate Chardonnay
 characters. Fermentation took place in old
 French oak barriques for around 6 months,
 with no malolactic fermentation. 40% of the
 final blend underwent wild fermentation in
 barrel. The barrel ferments are aged on lees,
 some of which is added to increase the
 mouthfeel, and add a bit of minerality which
 helps the wine age gracefully. There is no
 racking until final blending.
 The Characteristics
 This Chardonnay impresses with abundant 
stone fruit, lemon curd, and cut straw 
aromas. The wine showcases a clean, lemon 
gold appearance with fresh pineapple, 
custard apple, and melon hints on the nose. 
It offers a refreshing, textured experience, 
featuring pithy grapefruit and white peach 
flavours on the palate, ending with a tangy, 
long finish and a gentle phenolic grip. It 
presents an impressive display of stone 
fruits, crisp minerality, and delightful 
oak-induced spice notes, leading to a long, 
focused finish with integrated acidity

New Batman Takes Flight
Format: Hardcover
Very nice design on the book and with the hardcover especially. Love the art and story direction so far. The depiction of Gotham is interesting and has an almost cyberpunk feel to it.
