"Superbly ripe and fragrant, the bouquet shows yellow peach, rockmelon, vanilla and cedar characters. The palate delivers layers of rich texture and plenty of succulent flavours, beautifully enhanced by stylish oak infusion. You'd expect to pay a lot more for chardonnay of this quality. At its best: now to 2018." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2016.

An elegant Chardonnay with aromas of white peach, fig and toasted hazelnut laced with a hint of savoury oak. The palate is rich and savoury with stone fruit flavours, pineapple and a hint of butterscotch. An attractive easy-drinking style with a long, lingering finish. Fruit for this wine was harvested from a select number of Marlborough vineyards. The wine is partially barrel-fermented and some nutty oak notes support the bright fruit flavours.

Match with seafood and poultry over the next 3-4+ years from vintage date.

YUM! Excellent drop. I'm usually a Sav drinker but this Chardonnay has me converted.

Lovely bouquet, and exquisite uplifting fruit tones to entice anyone. Smooth and silky on the palate, with a clear and wonderfully lingering aftertaste.

Good value at this price

A nice well rounded tasty chardonnay

Henry - 26/06/2016

Having tasted a bottle of the 2014 vintage a month ago, which alerted us to this very good label, this 2015 vintage is every bit as good. This vintage has more citrus character, but retains the full bodied mouth feel of the previous one. Top wine at a good price.

So pleased to make the acquaintance of this wine again. Youthful now, but it will be a winner after cellaring. A great buy.
