Notes
2019 was a stand-out vintage for both the Nelson and Marlborough regions. A long, hot and very dry summer and autumn resulting in superb, clean, ripe fruit packed with intense flavours perfect for making sensational wine. Grapes sourced from the Moutere Hills region of Nelson and the Marlborough Chardonnay sourced from the Wairau Valley. Honey-oak and vanilla aromas with hints of ripe peach pair beautifully with tropical fruit and subtle spicy-oak flavours. Drink young and fresh through to 2024.
Food Pairing
Best enjoyed with poached salmon, slow cooked porkor a crisp Caeser salad
Cellar
A wine best enjoyed now but will cellar well for quite a few years to come.
Reviews & Awards
Premium - Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier 2021
By Cameron Douglas
A classically styled new world bouquet with aromas of peaches and cashew nut, whipped cream and vanilla, apple and mild toasty barrel scents. On the palate - a satin cream texture gives way to warming alcohol and flavours of stone fruits and apple, grapefruit and toasty barrel spices. Balanced and well made, weighty, youthful, fruity and ready. Best drinking upon purchase and through 2024.
