Tasting Notes:

A classic expression of ripe complex Hawkes Bay chardonnay bursting with lifted aromas of lemon, melon and peach supported by butterscotch and smoky oak. The palate is concentrated and fresh with a creamy texture and smooth dry finish.

Technical:

The fruit was sourced from mature vineyards in the Hawkes Bay. Planted in the Mendoza and 15 Clones on free draining red metal soils, the vineyards experience warm days and cool nights, excellent for flavour development. The superb 2022 growing season was warmer than average, and the vines responded by producing lovely golden ripe fruit.

The grapes were harvested and the turbid juice pressed to tanks and barriques for fermentation with a combination of selected and indigenous yeast. Once fermentation was completed the wine rested for an extended period on full yeast lees with regular stirring to enhance the silky texture and subtle autolytic characters. Approximately 30% of the wine went through Malolactic fermentation in the spring to soften the acidity round the palate and enhance the butterscotch flavours. The final blend combines the rich oaky textural elements form barrel fermentation with the aromatic freshness of the tank portions into a seamless whole.

Accolades & Awards:

90 Point Rated 4.5 Stars - Sam Kim Wine Orbit

"Attractively fruited and gently lifted on the nose, showing apricot, lemon peel, nougat and oatmeal nuances, it’s juicy and creamy in the mouth delivering youthful fruit flavours combined with crisp acidity, offering charming drinking. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Mar 2023
