WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
What a blessing it is to be able to make Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay. Internationally, folks are still coming to appreciate NZ Chardonnay and specifically Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay. But folks in NZ know it’s the best, particularly from certain sites, like we have the honour of sourcing from in Te Awanga. Like Pinot Noir, the great Chardonnays of the world are wines of tension. Hawke’s Bay and this Te Awanga site provides this with its sun-drenched fruit coupled with the cool nights and long growing season. This results in a luscious Chardonnay that finishes with great acidity and freshness. We’re selling out of this wine quickly every year. So hop on it.
