Description
91pts... brilliantly priced, the wine offers plenty of delectable flavours"
"Beautifully style and expressed, the fabulously aromatic bouquet shows grilled peach, rockmelon, nougat and roasted nut characters. The palate delivers excellent fruit intensity and rounded mouthfeel, wonderfully enhanced by silky texture and elegant oak infusion. Brilliantly priced, the wine offers plenty of delectable flavours. At its best: now to 2019." sam Kim Wine Orbit March 2017.
Fruit for this wine was sourced from several vineyards in the foothills of the Wairau Valley in Marlborough.
A fruit driven chardonnay with complex flavours of ripe stone fruit combine with a hint of toasted hazelnut a hint of crème brulee. The palate is rich, generous and complex with an elegant structure and refined finish. The lengthy palate offers flavours of stone fruit, rockmelon and subtle spice.
The majority of this Faultline Reserve Chardonnay was barrel fermented in seasoned oak. This wine went through malolactic fermentation which helps to soften the acidity and gives fullness on the palate.
A great wine for drinking immediately, or with careful cellaring of up to five years from vintage date this Chardonnay will develop into a fuller, more complex wine.
An ideal match with scallops, fresh blue cod or roast chicken.
