A rather enticing bouquet of fresh yellow and white peaches, layers of lees and barrel spices, a seam of wood smoke and classic stony earth soil suggestions. Lovely weight and tension as the wine touches the palate. Flavours of stone fruits and citrus along with spices and smoke mirror the bouquet. A complete wine with mouthfeel and poise, length and complexity. Best drinking from 2024 through 2030. Excellent

Appealing chardonnay with white peach, citrus/grapefruit, hazelnut, vanilla bean, and spicy oak flavours. The wine has a good balance of fruit sweetness and acidity, giving a pleasantly dry finish. Good now but no rush 17 OCT 2023 Drink 2023–2028

The Trinity Hill Gimblett Gravels Chardonnay is an outstanding expression of New Zealand winemaking, crafted in the renowned Gimblett Gravels region of Hawke’s Bay. This wine captures the balance of richness and freshness that Chardonnay from this unique terroir is known for.

The nose is vibrant and complex, offering aromas of ripe stone fruits such as peach and nectarine, intertwined with notes of citrus zest, toasted hazelnuts, and a touch of vanilla. Subtle flinty nuances and hints of creamy nougat reflect the wine’s careful oak aging and the mineral-rich soils of the Gimblett Gravels.

On the palate, the wine is full-bodied yet elegant, with a silky texture and a lively backbone of acidity. Flavors of lemon curd, white peach, and green apple are layered with hints of roasted almond, brioche, and a touch of saline minerality. The oak influence is seamlessly integrated, adding structure and depth without overshadowing the fruit. The finish is long, crisp, and beautifully balanced, showcasing the wine's refined complexity.

Crafted by the skilled team at Trinity Hill, this Chardonnay reflects a commitment to sustainable viticulture and meticulous winemaking. Fermented with wild yeasts and aged in French oak barrels, the wine is a true representation of its Gimblett Gravels origin.

This Chardonnay pairs exceptionally well with dishes such as grilled scallops, roast chicken with thyme, or creamy seafood pasta. It also complements mild cheeses like Gruyère or triple-cream Brie. While delightful to drink now, it has the structure to age gracefully for 5–7 years, developing further complexity and richness.
