Morton Estate Black Label Hawke's Bay NZ Chardonnay 2007

90/100 45

Rich, creamy-textured Chardonnay with good mouth feel and plenty of weight. Quite a complex wine with a sensitive mix of ripe peach/nectarine fruit flavours with bran biscuit and hazelnut. Very impressive wine - a top tier Chardonnay at a fair price.

Tasted: Apr 2011   Closure: S'cap    Average price: NZD $34 (~USD $26)
