Holy, smokes, this is a pleasant surprise. It shouldn't be, as everything that Gary & Kathy Jordan (of Jordan Wines, Stellenbosch) touch, turns to gold. What is a surprise, however, is to stumble upon creamy, soft, unctuous barrel fermented Chardonnay, from Blighty. Bright orchard fruits and zesty lemon and lime sit atop a smokey, mineral, vanilla core and creamy, buttery finish. Outstandingly good cool climate Chardonnay.
WineGB Awards 2024 Gold Medal Winner.
Staddle Stone is derived from the Old English word ‘stathol’, meaning foundation or support and in medieval times these mushroom-shaped stones were used to support granaries, haystacks and beehives to improve air circulation. A series of medieval staddle stones demarcates the boundary of our chardonnay vineyard at Mousehall. Classic Chardonnay flavours with lime citrus and integrated oak. A cool-climate style characterised by refreshing linear acidity and mouth-filling fruit textures
Tidebrook is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in East Sussex between the medieval villages of Mayfield and Wadhurst. The brook for which Tidebrook is named, rises in the valley and flows through Mousehall Country Estate, forming one of the sources of the River Rother, meeting the sea at Rye. In bygone years, the iron industry and later the hop industry were significant in this area, the latter giving rise to the distinctive Oast found on Mousehall, featuring as the logo of the Tidebrook wines.
