Little Engine 2016 Silver Chardonnay
Citrus and fresh apple lead, accented by a measured touch of toast. The palate is rich but well shaped, with bright acidity keeping the fruit and subtle oak in balance.

Little Engine 2016 Platinum Pinot Noir
Dark cherry and ripe forest fruit lead a concentrated, spice-laced profile, with oak adding depth without obscuring the fruit.

Decant briefly and serve with duck, lamb or earthy mushroom dishes.
Springfield Estate Wild Yeast Chardonnay
An unwooded Chardonnay with ripe pear, white peach and lemon curd. Natural fermentation and time on the lees add a subtle creamy texture, while bright minerality keeps the palate fresh and defined.
