Nga Waka Martinborough Chardonnay 2022

Description

Almond, Oatmeal, Peach

"Stylish and elegant, the wine shows ripe stone fruit, nougat, lemon zest, toasted almond and oatmeal nuances on the nose, followed by a beautifully weighted palate that's succulent and persistent. Wonderfully framed by bright acidity, finishing long and expansive. At its best: now to 2029" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2023

"Bright, even, pale straw yellow with depth. The nose is poised, with aromas of stonefruit, citrus, butter popcorn, vanilla and hints of spice. Medium-full bodied, aromas of peach, apricot, lemon sorbet, grapefruit, and enriched by butter popcorn, vanilla and delicate spice. The fruit shows depth and harmonious flavours; the round and creamy mouthfeel contributes to weight, and crunchy acidity persists a lingering finish. This Chardonnay is well-made and well-balanced in a classic house style" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Jan 2024
