THE WINES
Enseigners is a lieu-dit (unclassified plot of vines) which abuts Bâtard-Montrachet – unquestionably some of the most hallowed ground to grow Chardonnay. 2017 is the first year Florence opted to bottle this parcel separately, and we’ve secured a minuscule allocation.
Insane depth here – a touch less acid spine than the standard Puligny, but so densely packed of white flowers, Chardonnay fruit and nutty, waxy texture, rich and hedonistic but with amazing poise. A wine which needs a year or two down and will reward handsomely with further cellar time.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Biodynamic Minimal Intervention Wines From A Beautiful Adelaide Hills Estate
Owner Damon Nagel started life as a sommelier in Adelaide, moving to London to further his wine education whilst working in top end dining restaurants. Achieving success in London property, he would eventually return to Adelaide, purchasing the beautiful undulating Brackenwood farm in the early 2000s, first releasing wines from vintage 2005.
Winemaking is today overseen by Daniel Zuzolo, ex Primo Estate, with the stable offering interesting blends and lesser seen plantings of Barbera and Gamay alongside more traditional offerings such as Shiraz and Riesling.
Growing and winemaking is strictly along biodynamic lines, with no additions bar minimal sulphur at bottling. A pure set of releases very much at home alongside Felixir’s European offerings, fun styles of personality with enough depth and interest to be taken seriously.
