Keint-He Hillier Blanc - 2008

The 2008 Hillier Blanc is a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir.  This wine was bottled directly from a new 110 litre Hungarian oak barrel without fining or filtering.   

Golden – coloured, opulent and loaded with caramel and spicy oak aromas.   There will be a slight deposit of lees on the side of the bottle when stored on its side.  Stand the bottle upright an hour or more before opening.  After opening, decant the bottle for service to maintain the bright clarity, and prevent any lees or small sediment particles from rising into the wine.  Creamy & buttery, this is a white wine that you can really sink your teeth into.

It scored a 90 in The County Grapevine.

$50
