Obliix Gimblett Gravels Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2023
A name synonymous with leadership in wine, Sir George Fistonich has a history of success but has always operated with an eye on the future. In 2021 Sir George, not content with retiring, founded Fistonich Family Vineyards to continue his love of viticulture, winemaking and developing future talent.
"Beautifully fruited and inviting, the bouquet shows ripe peach, rockmelon, lemon zest, roasted cashew and subtle vanilla aromas. The palate displays succulent fruit intensity together with creamy mouthfeel and well-pitched acidity, finishing long and flavoursome. At its best: now to 2027" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2024
Rich and complex, with pronounced aromas of ripe stone fruits such as peach and hint of sautéed butter, touch of spice like clove or nutmeg. The palate is medium bodied and creamy, with a smooth, luxurious texture that expresses a balanced acidity that lifts the rich fruit flavors and provides a fresh, vibrant character. This Chardonnay showcases a harmonious balance of fruit, oak, and acidity, with the barrel fermentation adding layers of complexity and richness. It’s a well-structured wine with a luxurious mouthfeel and a crowd-pleasing finish.
Diverging from the straight and narrow, Obliix wines are made when the winemakerdecides to take the road less travelled. The end result is delicious and joyful wines.
2O23 harvest was a challenging time for Chardonnay, which until the cylone had beenexperiencing an exceptional growth period. However, due to the dedication of the vineyard team we were able to pick only the best quality fruit, which made the winemaking somuch easiser.
