Elephant Hill Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay 2024
"A delicious wine, taut and dry with core flavours of ripe grapefruit and white nectarine, there’s a sea-spray quality then flavours of mineral and stone, red apple and leesy complexities. Palate textures include a fine tannins and medium+ acidity which also frame the core fruit flavours of pomaceous and stone fruits. Well made, youthful and ready to drink from mid to late 2026 through 2033" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2025
"Stylish and elegant, the wine shows ripe peach, rockmelon, nougat, and almond meal notes on the nose, followed by a beautifully weighted palate that's succulent and fleshy. Splendidly supported by bright acidity, finishing persistent and refined. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2025

100% handpicked Chardonnay, whole bunch pressed, with partial barrel and malolactic fermentations. French oak aged for 12months, 20% new barrels, and a further 6 months in tank all on light lees.
