Smith & Sheth CRU Heretaunga Chardonnay 2020, Hawkes Bay
A sophisticated, pure and silky textured bouquet with scents of fresh peach and red apple, salty air and a clay stone mineral quality. The oak seam is noticeable, but not overdone with a raw nut and baking spice complexity. A powerful satin texture touches the palate first contrasted by a core of fruit, flavours of new and mild toasted barrel, refreshing acid line and lengthy complex finish. great drinking from late 2022 through 2030+.
