Power, precision and price... 

This one is from the long lost Chardonnay land of Gisborne.  The label speaks volumes as does the reviews and gold medal. A nice NZ choice for a fuller bodied Chardonnay. 

"The grapes for this elegant Gisborne Chardonnay are grown from two select parcels from the Briant and Tietjen vineyards. Lovely golden colour in the glass. Ripe peach and melon layered with butterscotch and toasty oak notes. The palate is big, rich and full with great length and weight." Winery

"Elegantly complex and inviting, the bouquet shows rockmelon, mango, vanilla and roasted hazelnut aromas, leading to a generously weighted palate offering creamy mouthfeel combined with beautifully pitched acidity, finishing long and flavoursome. At its best: now to 2029." 5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, July 2024 (2023 Vintage)
