Description

- Peach & apricot
- Spice

Light straw gold in colour. The 2020 Hawkes Bay Chardonnay shouts peach, spice, apricot, melon with a splash of oak. It is very approachable. There is a small portion of malolactic fermentation. The palate exhibits good length, hence it is an ideal food wine.
All the grapes for the Hawkes Bay Chardonnay were grown in their vineyards - 65% at Ohiti Estate in the Ohiti Valley and 35% in at the winery vineyard. The yields were light hence there is a good concentration of flavor.
Immediately after harvesting on the 15th and 28th of March, the grapes were pressed, and the juice was immediately chilled. Following settling and inoculation with a selected yeast strain, the juice was racked and fermented in stainless steel initially and then transferred to barrel.
Food Pairing: Do enjoy with pork, chicken or fish.
