On Giants' Shoulders

15/03/2024

🍇 With Vintage 2024 in full swing, here in Martinborough we can feel the Autumn shift in the weather. Cooler mornings, but still those bright, clear evenings that call for a glass of our On Giants' Shoulders Chardonnay.

🌿Our 2021 Chardonnay was made by the previous (and original!) On Giants’ Shoulders vigneron Braden Crosby and is the final Chardonnay release under the On Giants’ Shoulders label - so we suggest you enjoy it while you still can!

🌟 All fruit is sourced from our Princess Street vineyard in Martinborough, from vines that are close to 30 years old. The 2021 Chardonnay is ready to drink now and does not disappoint, but could happily cellar for 3-5 years if that’s more your style.

✨Cheers from the On Giants’ Shoulders team! 🥂

In the pioneering winemaking community of Martinborough, we are now stewards of a viticultural legacy. Our family, mentors and founders of our craft have lifted us up to produce this series of single-vineyard wines. On Giants Shoulders is a Martinborough winery not to be missed.
