Description
Cloudy Bay Chardonnay, Marlborough and Central Otago, New Zealand, 2019
Grape: 100% Chardonnay. Barrel fermented and aged in French oak for 11 months.
The 2019 Chardonnay is fresh, fragrant and mouth-watering. The nose is redolent of orchard fruit, white peach, apricot, blossom and warm hay.The palate is concentrated, with notes of apple and pear balanced by gentle vanilla spice, hazelnut and a subtle saline note. A dart of citrus acidity delivers freshness and leads to a long and appealing finish.
"A subtle, restrained, yet zesty bouquet with aromas of lemon, rose hip, and green melon with hints of cinnamon, and toasted sourdough barrel influence. Lemon zest flavours persist on the creamy-textured palate. A wine showing some elegance, poise, and balance, juxtaposed by youthful potency."
93/100 points, New Zealand Wine Rater, January 2021
Enjoy with white fish and vegetable dishes.
