FIVE STARS 93/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
Classic Hawke's Bay Chardonnay from this elite winemaking team. The upfront palate is fruit driven with vibrant and juicy acidity leaving a lingering finish to compliment the lemon curd and brulee creaminess. A showstopper in our eyes.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "It's elegantly expressed on the nose, showing white flesh peach, fig, oatmeal, subtle vanilla, and roasted cashew aromas. The palate delivers succulent fruit flavours with creamy flow, backed by finely pitched acidity, finishing lingering and stylish. At its best: now to 2029."
The winery writes "Estate Chardonnay '24 shines with a white gold hue and pale honey highlights. It presents a delightful blend of peach, lemon rind, and buttered popcorn, complemented by bright and lively acidity that extends the wine's long palate. The aroma is reminiscent of warm peach cobbler, intertwined with notes of marzipan, flint, and tarragon. Balanced by the signature racy freshness characteristic of ripe and fine Hawke's Bay Chardonnay, making the Estate Chardonnay 2024 a standout."
