A benchmark for modern New Zealand Chardonnay, it exemplifies the estate's philosophy of minimal intervention and uncompromising vineyard expression. Sourced from organically farmed vineyards in Marlborough's Southern Valleys, this small-production wine showcases remarkable finesse, structure and purity, standing among the Southern Hemisphere's finest examples of the variety.

The 2022 vintage reveals an elegant bouquet of white peach, nectarine and citrus blossom, intertwined with notes of toasted hazelnut, struck flint and subtle spice from carefully integrated French oak. Wild fermentation and extended maturation on lees impart impressive texture and complexity, while vibrant natural acidity provides exceptional balance.

Terroir

Most of the hard work it takes to produce quality wine happens in the vinyard. The soil, the climatic conditions, the aspect, the bodies of water and many more factors, collectively knwon as "terroir" can influence the flavour of wine and give wine distint minerality, depth and character.
