Winemaker's Notes
Marlborough's pure, incisive fruit flavours are beautifully showcased in this wine. The wine was fermented and aged on lees for 8 months, in French and American oak barriques.
Tasting Notes
It is a very good example of a Marlborough Chardonnay abounding on the nose with the fruit flavours of peach and nectarines with toasty oak characters from the French and American oak. The wine has a lingering grapefruit and butterscotch finish.
