3sixty2 Chardonnay 2016, Marlborough

A lovely expression of Chardonnay on the nose. The combination of ripe pure fruits, barrel and bottle development presents a bouquet with complexity and allure. On the palate - the ideas presented in the bouquet come alive with textures and flavours of grapefruit and stone fruit, white tree fruit and oak tones. Again the bottle development has allowed harmonies to arrive adding complexity. Nice weight and balance, excellent acid line and just the right measure of oak, smoke, toast and spice. Well made and ready. Drink now and through 2023.
