Te Kairanga John Martin Chardonnay 2021, Martinborough

There’s fine pure bouquet of ripe citrus and white fleshed stone fruits laced with a flinty gentle funkiness then aromas and flavours of spice and a soft toasty-ness from oak. Bright, fresh and youthful on the palate with flavours of fresh grapefruit flesh and white peach, vanilla and stone and a creamy lactic quality. Lovely textures on the palate with a chalk-like line and with a lower oak impact the wine has less weight making it more food friendly as well as an aperitif quality. Best drinking from 2023 through 2028.
