This is a wine where we always have a bottle in the fridge. The perfect aperitif Chardonnay this wine also goes very well with all types of seafood. Fermented 80% in old French oak barriques, and 20% in stainless steel tanks there is very little oak influence on either nose or palate. This has allowed the vibrant fruit to show through beautifully with lively lime and lemon aromas and a flinty, mineral edginess with hints of fig and white peach.
The weighty mid-palate also shows peachy ripeness along with crisp acid minerality that gives the wine a refreshing cleansing quality. This wine is delightful as an aperitif, and even better to drink with fish and shellfish.

Entry-level chardonnay made from hand-harvested grapes from Kumeu and Hawke's Bay. Impressive wine from a challenging vintage. Peach and apple flavours with an attractive seasoning of nutty yeast lees characters. A smooth-textured wine with a great balance of sweetness and fruity acidity.
