| Chardonnay Bird in Hand Chardonnay Two in The Bush 750ml A lively cool climate chardonnay with fresh varietal fruit flavours of nectarine, peach and cashews followed through with a delicious intensely flavoured and delicately textured mouthfeel. Type of Closure: Screwcap Producer: Bird in Hand Grape Variety: Chardonnay Winemaker: Kym Milne MW Agent: Seckford Agencies Vinification Details: A blend of both handpicked and machineharvested Chardonnay grapes, both picked in the cool of night. The handpicked fruit was gently wholebunch pressed directly to seasoned French oak barriques, adding texture, while the machineharvested proportion was gently destemmed prior to pressing to stainless steel tanks. History: Situated in an area of the Adelaide Hills that was littered with goldmines in the 1800s, the Bird in Hand winery was purchased and planted in 1997 by Andrew Nugent. Andrew has kept the close historical links alive both in the naming of the winery and their wine ranges; Two in the Bush and Nest Egg were the names of mineshafts in the Bird in Hand goldmine. From its vineyards in Woodside and Clare, Bird in Hand produce classic examples of cool climate Chardonnay and Shiraz that have won world acclaim. Regional Information: With a multitude of different altitudes, soil types, angles to the sun, the strength of the Adelaide Hills is in the wide range of varieties that can be produced to a world standard. At Bird in Hand, the seaside influence of the Gulf of St. Vincent, the cloudtrapping rise of the Mount Lofty Ranges and plenty of Australian sun all combined to create a special diurnal temperature shift that the grapes love.
