93/100 55

Very attractive wine that punches well above its weight. Subtle grapefruit/white peach/nectarine flavours flattered with a lovely biscuity character from oak and yeast lees influence. Very linear and long with a silken texture. Classy Chardonnay.

Tasted: Dec 2010   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $28 (~USD $22)
