"A lovely complexity and richness begins the bouquet with scents of barrel spices and roasted stone fruits, there’s a distinctive lees spice and a wood-smoke quality then scents of citrus and roasted white fleshed tree fruits. Full-bodied on the palate with a satin-cream texture, fine tannins and plenty of acidity pulling all these elements together. Fruit flavours mirror the bouquet centering on peach and nectarine with citrus and saline highlights. A lovely example ticking all the boxes of weight, intensity, style and complexity, there’s familiarity and texture" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

Fresh citrus and mineral flavour, a typical cool climate chardonnay that has light-bodied freshness with a delicate oak roundness. Sourced from our vineyard in the sub region of Ward Valley, southern Marlborough, blessed with deep clay loam soils and traces of limestone.

Food Pairing: Enjoy it on its own or with strong cheese and chicken dishes.
