Elephant Hill Reserve Chardonnay 2017, Hawkes Bay
Sophisticated bouquet with aromas of ripe yellow peach and brazil-nut, new wood aromas and red apple, citrus and dry stone mineral. On the palate - full-bodied, fruity, woody and, nutty with flavours that reflect the bouquet. Cashew and creamy, fine wood tannins, medium+ (ish) acidity and and lengthy varietally intense finish. Well made, drink now and through 2025.
