CLASSIC HAWKE’S BAY CHARDONNAY AT ITS BEST
Crafted only in years of exceptional quality, the Destination Series represents the absolute best of Linden Estate — and this 2021 Chardonnay is a stunning showcase of what Hawke’s Bay can do when everything aligns.
Sourced from a handful of the region’s finest chardonnay parcels and fermented and aged in premium French oak puncheons, this is a wine of elegance, energy, and real presence. It’s powerful yet graceful, with ripe stone fruit, lime zest and citrus blossom on the nose, a rich, creamy palate wrapped in toasted nuts and subtle flint, and a savoury baking spice finish that lingers beautifully. The palate is tight and focused, with fine acidity that keeps everything in check, delivering a long, seamless finish that screams class.
There's obvious barrel influence, but it’s elegant and not overblown. Think creamy mouthfeel, restrained power, and just enough structure to cellar if you can resist. This is top-shelf Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay with serious pedigree.
