Tantalus Cachette Reserve Chardonnay 2019, Waiheke Island
A rich and perfumed bouquet with aromas of ripe stone fruits and citrus peel, there are scents of sweet oak and fine toasty barrel spices, raw cashew nut butter then a fine stony earthy quality. Full-bodied and equally rich and highly scented on the palate. There’s no mistaking oak carried easily by the roasted stone fruit and baked apple flavours, moments of citrus then smoke and new barrel spices Fine wood tannins and medium acidity bring texture and length. A well made wine with a core of power and richness with best drinking upon release and through 2027+.
