3 x Alpha Domus The Batten Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2024
Awarded 5 Stars: Michael Cooper, Michael Cooper's Buyer's Guide
"Bright, light lemon/green, it is highly fragrant and mouth filling, with lovely concentration of vibrant peach, grapefruit and biscuity oak flavours, fresh acidity and a rich, lasting finish. Complex, youthful and full of potential, it's well worth cellaring to 2028+" Michael Cooper
This barrel fermented Chardonnay shows ripe nectarine, and hints of toasted grains. It has a luxurious palate, powerful, complex yet balanced. Delivering caramel and toffee with citrus flavours, the palate is completed by a very long sumptuous and layered mineral finish with hints of nutmeg, The Batten Chardonnay has 5-6 years cellaring potential. Single Vineyard. Organic.
Alc: 13.5%
3 x Terra Sancta Riverblock Central Otago Chardonnay 2022

"Fruit-focused wine with ginger, apricot, vanilla, oyster shell, floral yeast lees and a toasty, savoury character that is very appealing. Accessible and attractive now with potential to develop well with bottle age" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Dec 2023
Golden straw in colour, a lifted and vibrant nose delivers beguiling floral notes accompanied by summer stone fruits. On the palate the wine is complex and concentrated with flavors of lime curd, ripe peach, yellow nectarine, quince and lemon pepper spice. Riverblock’s hallmark mineral notes and purity of fruit are clearly evident, as is its long, lingering finish. A superb cool climate Chardonnay - bright, joyful and harmonious.
