Drinking Window: 2021 - 2024
Sourced from the warm and dry Gisborne region, this NZ Chardonnay features vanilla and yellow fruits on the nose, thanks to partial fermentation in French barrels and a further 12 months of maturation in oak. Ripe yellow apple, mango and melon on the nose and the palate, lifted by lemon zest and toast. The finish is long and ripe.
