- This is a fresh, clean, focused Chardonnay with vibrant aromas of lime zest, white florals, and oyster shells. Citrus fruits are layered on the palate with complex, savoury nuances through a long finish.
The grapes for this wine were 100% whole-bunch pressed and fermented with selected yeasts in a combination of French and Austrian puncheons, foudres, and stainless-steel tanks. The wine underwent partial malolactic conversion before being aged in oak barriques for 16 months, 18% of which were new.

| Winery | The Chardonnay grapes come from the Kidnappers Vineyard on Hawke’s Bay coastline at Te Awanga. The spring and autumn are warm and sunny. At the same time, the summer temperatures are tempered by the cooling sea breezes, creating the ideal conditions for the development of intense flavours, lifted aromatics and refreshing natural acidity. Pruning techniques are being evolved to improve sap flow and reduce trunk disease. Working towards a more organic approach, herbicides are being minimised, cover crops are being introduced, and they are moving towards a more organic-based spray programme in the vineyard. The grapes are hand-harvested. |
