Caythorpe Family Estate Chardonnay 2020, Marlborough

Lots to like about the bouquet of this wine from the precise varietal signature to the flinty positive reduction touch. Aromas anbd flavours of white peach and ripe red apple flesh, some grapefruit then burnt butter and vanilla highlights. Crisp and dry as the wine touches the palate with flavours of citrus then stone fruits then a fine stony mineral quality. Fine fruit tannins and medium+ acid line wrap around the core of fruit to present a rather enticing medium+ weighted wine. Oak influence is low highlighting the purity of fruit and sense of place. Best drinking from 2023 through 2028.
