Carrick
Cairnmuir Terraces EBM Chardonnay 2022 750ml

A selection of the Winemaker's best barrels

The Carrick EBM Chardonnay is so named for its ‘Extended Barrel Maturation’, which imparts further character, structure and flavor to this wine. Released after at least 1 year of bottle age, it is complex, with an earthy, savoury tone.

Generous, intense and age-worthy, the EBM is well-suited for 10 years of cellaring. Pair with roasted white meats, buttery fish, or green vegetables.

The EBM 2022 Chardonnay is a single vineyard, single clone wine, made entirely from Mendoza vines, on their own roots, planted in 1994. The vines are sprawling, harking back to the original method used at Carrick, allowing good airflow and breadth of canopy which results in beautiful small clusters of fruit. Matured in barrique on gross lie for 18 months, before blending and bottling. Hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed and wild fermented in barrel.
