"Rich, mellow and appealingly creamy chardonnay with a smooth, rich texture and peach, toast, cashew nut, ginger and spicy oak flavours. An attractive wine from a successful vintage. Good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2021
A subtle, creamy-textured wine, it has very good depth of ripe, peachy, slightly leesy flavours, considerable complexity, balanced acidity and lots of drink-young charm.
Our 2020 Plainsman SV Chardonnay is an 80:20 blend from Apatu Farms Vineyard and our very own Middle Road Vineyard. 2020 was a stunning year in Hawkes Bay and we were delighted to be able to harvest this fruit in beautiful condition.
Post pressing and settling, the juice was run off to one-year old and seasoned barrels for fermentation and MLF. Post MLF, the wine was matured in oak, on full lees, until January 2021.
Food Pairing: The oak ageing makes this wine an excellent match with full flavoured rich dishes, in particular poultry, pork, salmon and crayfish.
