Description

"This is attractively fragrant on the nose showing ripe stone fruit, rockmelon, vanilla and hazelnut characters with a hint of butterscotch notes. The palate is succulent and rounded, and offers tasty fruit flavours and creamy texture. The wine is up front and flavoursome with plenty of appealing flavours. At its best: now to 2019" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2017

Great wine is so much more than just fermented grape juice; it is an alchemy in which unique terroir and skilled winemaking uinte. At Dashwood, we create wines that are true reflections of New Zealand's Marlborough region. They are as cool as the winds that whip through our valleys each day and as imposing as the towering mountains that frame our vineyards.

Food Paring: This fabulous drop paris beautifully with a delicious warm salad of roasted cauliflower, crunchy Belgian endive, sweet pears, grapes, and toasted pine nuts that all come together with a blue cheese and buttermilk dressing offering notes of savory, bitter, sweet, and rich to compliment this wine's tasty fruit flavours and creamy texture!

This is a really good Chardonnay at a really good price (not a hint on the Sauvignon Blanc taste that seems to be creeping in to many of the new Chardonnays)
