Monowai Upper Reaches Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2019
- White peach
- Nectarine
- Saline-mineral
- Ginger
"Bright, fresh, coolish-climate chardonnay with white peach, nectarine, saline-mineral, ginger and subtle nutty yeast lees flavours. A taut, focused, high-energy wine that offers good drinking now but no rush. Enjoy 2020–2025" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Aug 2020
"This is gorgeously fruited and attractively complex on the nose showing yellow peach, fig, vanillin oak and brioche characters. The palate delivers excellent weight and concentration, together with creamy mouthfeel and flowing texture, finishing splendidly long and delicious" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2020
A selected parcel of premium fruit was chosen and carefully tended from the vine to the barrel to bring you our Upper Reaches selection, a smooth, full bodied wine. The fresh fruit aromas of peaches and apricot are complimented by buttery toasted notes adding layers of complexity.
Fruit was selectively harvested at optimum ripeness, gently pressed and fermented between 12-15˚C to maximise freshness and aroma. Underwent 100% MLF and was fermented and aged in new and 1-2 year old French oak barrels.
Delicious for drinking right now, this wine has the potential to cellar for another 5 years over which it will develop an added richness and complexity.
Food Pairing: Delicious with baked mushroom & chicken.
