The Merricks North parcel is drawn from the latest addition to Garagiste’s bench of great Mornington sites. Planted in 1996, the vines lie in similar brown loamy soils to those at the flagship Merricks Grove site located close by.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp sugg=\"true\"\u003eSorted in the vineyard and winery before being pressed as whole bunches to 500-litre puncheons, this wine is wild fermented with no temperature control, followed by seven months on lees to slowly enrich the texture. A couple of barrels went through malolactic, and the nicely integrated new oak component stands at 10%.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garagiste","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47610333528226,"sku":"9354144000015","price":48.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/6533\/4178\/files\/23_3dd5b20a-f451-4b8a-9414-d24698ec5f65.png?v=1788319914","url":"https:\/\/spon.bar\/products\/2025-garagiste-le-stagiaire-chardonnay","provider":"Spön Bottle Shop and Wine Bar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
