{"product_id":"garagiste-terre-maritime-chardonnay-2025","title":"Garagiste Terre Maritime Chardonnay 2025","description":"\u003cp sugg=\"true\"\u003eThe Terre Maritime is drawn from several rows of Chardonnay in the top corner of Merricks Grove. Barney Flanders has always felt this parcel results in a superb and unique Chardonnay. Here, the 29-year-old vines are rooted in cool grey loam with pockets of red ferrosol. The plot sits at 90 metres and faces south-east, offering the vines a cooler, more sheltered aspect. There’s less vigour here than in the rest of the vineyard and the bunches are a touch smaller. As a result, the fruit from this parcel makes the intense yet finessed wines we associate with Garagiste Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp sugg=\"true\"\u003eAfter rigorous sorting in both vineyard and winery, the fruit was whole-bunch pressed direct to 500-litre puncheon, where it wild-fermented without temperature control before resting on gross lees for nine months. The outstanding ’25 vintage has left its mark. The wine is salt-licked and clean, living up to its namesake. It opens with zaps of acidity and a lightning-strike of flint followed by a budding glow from white stone fruit and anise spice. It’s a gorgeous, don’t miss Mornington Chardonnay that will reward patient and impatient drinkers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garagiste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68275542229220,"sku":"26744-750","price":79.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/2575\/3828\/files\/c425135a-0fdf-f111-ad7e-02ffd6142ce9_26744-750_..png?v=1794540679","url":"https:\/\/www.internationalfinewines.com.au\/products\/garagiste-terre-maritime-chardonnay-2025","provider":"International Fine Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
