Main Divide Chardonnay 2022, North Canterbury

An impressive bouquet with a reductive gun-flinty quality, ripe, fresh and new too with aromas of apples and white peach, citrus peel and spice. Flavours on the palate mirror the bouquet with a satin texture, contrasting acid line and a nutty-biscuity quality. The gun-flint character is persistent adding a quality I enjoy in this example. Well made with best drinking from 2023 through 2027.

This example is a departure from the usual expression of Main Divide Chardonnay - less weight, more complexity and excellenr mouthfeel.
