Kumeu Estate Chardonnay, 2022, New Zealand (6x75cl)

The Puligny Montrachets of New Zealand is how many critics have described these wines from Kumeu River.

The 'Estate' wines focus on exceptional fruit and whilst more expensive than the Village wines the price is a fraction compared to equivalent quality from Burgundy...

The best grapes are selected from six different Kumeu vineyard sites to create this wine. There’s fleshy peach on the nose, leading to subtle tropical fruit aromas, like guava, mango and pineapple. It’s weightier and more rounded on the palate, compared to Ray’s Road Chardonnay, balanced with a spike of freshness. The finish is very long and the fruit is persistent. A saltiness is left on the lips afterwards.
