Medium-bodied and still with a juicy backbone of acidity. At the front of the palate there is peach, grapefruit and apple strudel, then moving into butterscotch, popcorn and marzipan later on. A lick of minerality (I often find this in Bendigo chardonnays) but fits neatly into the balance with a luscious texture, unfolding spice and a hint of toasty oak. A well-rounded example, showing subtlety and depth \u2013 nothing too complex or intense. With enough accents to reward the cellaring, I\u2019d fit this into that \u2018classic\u2019 NZ chardonnay box, where the whole is greater than the parts. <strong>92pts<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deep lemon-green colour with a hint of flinty smokiness and lime zest, roast chestnut and brioche on the nose.
