"A gorgeous chardonnay; the instantly appealing bouquet shows ripe stone fruit, mango, vanilla and cedar characters. The palate is equally satisfying with fabulous fruit weight and intensity, wonderfully enhanced by silky texture and stylish oak infusion. The wine is immediate and generous, and offers terrific value. At its best: now to 2019." Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, April 2017

An elegant Chardonnay with aromas of white peach, rockmelon and toasted hazelnut. The palate is rich and savoury with stone fruit flavours, and a hint of crème brulee. 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 fermented in seasoned oak and these nutty oak notes support the bright fruit flavours.

Match with creamy chicken casserole or rich seafood chowder over the next 3-4+ years from vintage date.
