Villa Maria Ihumatau Chardonnay 2021, Auckland

Aromas of ripe pink grapefruit and white peach, lemon and sweet barrel scents. Taut and youthful on the palate with flavours that mirror the bouquet, a distinctive youthful acid line accentuated by fine wood tannins then apple and citrus, white fleshed stone fruits and a fine mineral quality. This is likely the very last vinetage release from this site as the vines have now been pulled. Delicious, fresh, a fine complexity and balanced lengthy finish. Best drinking from late 2023 through 2029.
