Coopers Creek Select Vineyards Plainsman Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2020
"Gorgeously fruited and richly expressed, the bouquet shows grilled peach, mango, vanillin oak and brioche characters. It's equally satisfying on the palate offering excellent weight and persistency combined with creamy mouthfeel and velvety texture. Delectably appealing. At its best: now to 2025" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2021
"Rich, mellow and appealingly creamy chardonnay with a smooth, rich texture and peach, toast, cashew nut, ginger and spicy oak flavours. An attractive wine from a successful vintage. Good value at this price" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Sep 2021
A subtle, creamy-textured wine, it has very good depth of ripe, peachy, slightly leesy flavours, considerable complexity, balanced acidity and lots of drink-young charm.
Our 2020 Plainsman SV Chardonnay is an 80:20 blend from Apatu Farms Vineyard and our very own Middle Road Vineyard. 2020 was a stunning year in Hawkes Bay and we were delighted to be able to harvest this fruit in beautiful condition.
Post pressing and settling, the juice was run off to one-year old and seasoned barrels for fermentation and MLF. Post MLF, the wine was matured in oak, on full lees, until January 2021.
Food Pairing: The oak ageing makes this wine an excellent match with full flavoured rich dishes, in particular poultry, pork, salmon and crayfish.
