No introductions needed here...this is frankly one of the best known super premium Chardonnay's in NZ.

"A classic Clearview Estate Reserve Chardonnay of power & sophistication. Complex aromas of integrated seasoned oak, ripe stone fruit, brioche and mealy characters complement dried summer herbs and oak complexity. On the palate this wine has a superb acid line & balance that makes it accessible now but promises much for those with the patience to cellar." Winery

"A powerful wine with plenty of richness alongside excellent freshness and elegance. Made from Clearview’s oldest vines (30 years plus), a textbook nose of lemon meringue, ripe peach, oatmeal and toasty oak. The palate has great build with a dense core of citrus and stonefruit, toasted cashews and a creamy, spicy oak undertow. Good flow with a lengthy dry, savoury finish. Long regarded as one of the country’s top Chardonnays." 96/100 Emma Jenkins MW, Decanter UK, May 2026 (2024 Vintage)
