Emilien Feneuil 'Cuvee Totem' Brut 2018Varietal: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay

This bright and energetic Chardonnay is everything we love about the Central Coast

and this is one address where 2017 and 2018 are more first cousins than distant relations

The wine often offers classic notes of iron and earth

bush vine Chenin grown in the decomposed Granite soils of the Paardeberg

hence the name

Four weeks on the skins during fermentation

Hubert and Laurent ventured into this zone during the period of uncertainty following Romain’s death

The cuvée consists of the estate's oldest vines and the wine always benefits from time

The winery’s roots go back to the end of the 18th century

A fourth-generation winegrower

and fennel

Nestled in the tiny village of Lansac
