Smith & Sheth Cru Heretaunga Chardonnay 2019, Hawkes Bay
Ripe, focused, concentrated and richly scented bouquet. Aromas of ripe baked stone fruits and citrus peel, spicy toasty barrel scents with a youthful power and complexity. On the palate - plenty of weight and richness and fruit concentration, no mistaking the use of oak with spice and tannin then acidity to contrast and add freshness. Satin cream texture and lengthy finish. A delicious wine that is best enjoyed from purchase and through 2024.
