Neudorf Single Vineyard 'Rosie's Block' Chardonnay 2019, Moutere, Nelson
This is a barrel ferment expression and with just 8% new French -in total- used the emphasis is on purity, vine age and refinement with a bouquet voice on site first, a core of fruit second and fine judicious use of oak third. A lovely soft creamy texture on the palate with flavours of fresh orchard fruits and citrus then a youthful squeeze of acidity a lite salty edge. The oak, acidity and alcohol provide a sound foundation and there's a fine spice with an equally fine savoury edginess adding complexity and depth. Delicious. Drink now and through 2027+.
