A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Classy chardonnay with quite intense white peach, citrus, bran biscuit, subtle ginger and spicy oak flavours. A silken-textured wine with impressive length and purity. Supremely elegant chardonnay that can be appreciated now but might benefit from a little bottle-age. Drink: 2017 to 2023. Score - 95 (Bob Campbell, MW, bobcampbell.nz, Aug. 13, 2017) |
