Martinborough Vineyard Home Block Chardonnay 2023
An absolute Icon of a Chardonnay.
Its been a while since we all savoured and enjoyed this rich and pedigree driven Chardonnay. Now you can at a short lived promo price.
Martinborough Vineyard Home Block Chardonnay 2023 is an iconic New Zealand Chardonnay from one of Martinborough’s founding wineries.
Aromas of ripe stone fruit, lemon pith, brioche and subtle vanilla oak introduce this Chardonnay. The palate is framed by stone fruit, fine acidity and a concentrated palate. Beautifully balanced yet complex with toasty buttery notes in the background and a long salivating finish. Winery
"Gorgeously composed and elegantly fragrant, showing ripe stone fruit, melon, vanilla, lemon pith and brioche aromas, leading to a concentrated palate that's refined and finely poised. It's succulent and supple with seductive complexity,
finishing superbly long and silky. At its best: 2026 to 2035." 5 Stars & 96/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, July 2024
"A whiff of flint and struck match parts to reveal grilled citrus, smoky and roasted hazelnuts. Taut, zingy acidity zips across the palate, carrying the sappy stone-fruit and citrus flavours through to the chalky, savoury finish where subtle oak notes highlight a touch of butterscotch, nuts and toast. No more than medium-bodied but with a lovely drive and concentration... There is the structure and balance here to cellar for the mid-term 16 Feb 2025." Drink 2025 - 2032 93/100 The Real Review, Stephen Wong MW
