Nga Waka Martinborough Chardonnay 2020
- French oak
- Stone fruit
- Silky palate
- Lingering finish
"It's wonderfully fruited and delightfully complex with apricot, vanillin oak, roasted hazelnut and brioche characters. The generously expressed palate displays excellent weight and rounded mouthfeel, beautifully complemented by creamy texture and splendidly pitched acidity, finishing long and smooth. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2021
A rich, complex Martinborough Chardonnay showing intense ripe stone fruit flavours underpinned by subtle spicy oak, malolactic and barrel fermentation characters, enhanced by a silky palate texture and a elegant lingering finish.
