Mt. Difficulty Ghost Town Chardonnay 2019, Lowburn Valley, Central Otago

Quite a complex bouquet with core aromas of clay and stone then lightly toasted stone fruits of peach and apricot then apple and barrel spices. There’s a gun-flint and fine lees scent adding complexity and intrigue. Lovely weight and tension on the palate with a flinty grapefruit and peach flavours then lees, apple and mineral suggestions. A decent acid line with fine wood tannins and mouthfeel that highlights the flinty mineral attributes. Lovely long finish, balanced and well made. Drinking well from 2021 through 2026+.
