From, arguably, New Zealand's best producer of Chardonnay (their wine show results are extraordinary), comes this exciting single vineyard, Wairau Valley expression. Packed full of attention-grabbing flavours - the more you sip, the more is revealed. It's that kind of wine. Highest quality fruit is immediately evident on the nose - deep and powerful, heady and complex aromas of rich stonefruit, gunsmoke, vanilla, and grapefruit. Clean and energetic natural acidity creates wonderful tension and piquancy. The flavours are pure, powerful and long. Mineral-laden white stonefruit, quince and citrus characters are enhanced with classic tight-grained vanilla oak and wisps of gunsmoke. Coiled and ready to pounce - sip this slowly and watch it unfurl in the glass. Dramatically good! Cellaring is a real option, here.
