Villa Maria Private Bin East Coast Chardonnay 2024
A fruit-driven style with creamy texture
A fruit-driven style with creamy texture
Description
Apricot, Cream, Oak
This wine is fruit-driven in style, with ripe stonefruit flavours mingling with zesty citrus notes. On the palate the mouthfeel is enhanced by a creamy texture and a delicate suggestion of oak. A medium bodied Chardonnay that is styled for enjoyment upon release with or without food.
The 2024 season was exceptional across the North Island's East Coast, with a warm dry summer producing outstanding fruit with superb concentration. The grapes were harvested throughout the Hawkes Bay and Gisborne regions where the maritime climate is perfect for slowly ripening Chardonnay, which promotes flavour, intensity and freshness.
Chardonnay fruit was gently pressed and juice fermented with light solids in stainless steel tanks. Maturation on yeast lees in the presence of subtle oak along with partial malolactic fermentation has created a mouth filling wine with gentle texture and body.
Food Pairing: A perfect match with your favourite seafood and chicken dishes or enjoy with a grazing platter.
