Tony Bish Skeetfield Chardonnay 2018, Hawkes Bay

Exciting, sophisticated, varietal, complex, flinty moments with aromas of citrus peel and white peach, red apple and cashew, roasted nectarine and vanilla toasty wood spices. Complex. On the palate - immediately engages the senses with textures of oak and acidity, wood tannins and fruit flavours, a lovely mealy almost salty note. Weighty, creamy yet firmly youthful, lengthy complex finish. A wine for the cellar till 2021 or decant for service. Delicious!
