Nga Waka Chardonnay 2021, Martinborough
An elegant, complex bouquet with aromas of fresh peach and apple flesh, baked brazil nut and vanilla spice. There’s a mix of fine lees and new wood scents adding breadth and additional complexity. A fine satin texture touches the palate first then a rush of fruit and wood spice. After 1 minute in glass the flavours transition to quince and grapefruit with layers of soil, silty soil with fine grained tannins, a whisper of mandarin peel and medium+ acidity. Balanced and well made with a lengthy finish. Best drinking from 2023 through 2029.
