93 Points, 5 Stars - Sam Kim, Wine orbit
"Exhibiting a great degree of restraint, the wine shows white flesh nectarine, lemon pith, flint and oatmeal aromas on the nose, leading to a brilliantly focused palate that offers excellent weight and linear mouthfeel. It is firmly structured by bright acidity, promising to evolve gracefully. At its best: mid-2020 to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit.

Winery description
"This is a classic, generous Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay – kicking off with aromas of grilled grapefruit, vanilla and hazelnut, following with a rich palate of citrus and bright acidity and toasty oak complexity.  Drink now or carefully cellar for up to ten years….if you can resist!"
 
Toasty and delicious!
