75cl / 13.5% - A longtime staff favourite, and a benchmark for good Kiwi Chardonnay, this is made with serious care and attention; hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed, wild fermentation including malolactic, 11 months in French oak (20% of which is new). Notes of bright citrus and orchard fruits are redolent on the nose, with a toasty, creamy, almost coconutty finish, and terrific minerality and structure.
