Neudorf Rosie's Block Chardonnay 2017 Nelson

Enticing and intriguing bouquet of Chardonnay with a flinty floral then ripe yellow stone fruit beginning; as the wine opens up in glass the sweet scents of oak emerge with vanilla and white toast then a distinctive mineral and honeysuckle layer. Wonderful texture on the palate with a vibrant core of fruit energised by acidity and new oak; flavours of white peach, red apple and quince; the vanilla sweet oak layer returns with a noticeable spice lick from the wood. Lovely lengthy finish, great balance and youthful energy. Drink now and through 2024.
