The Landing Chardonnay 2021, Bay of Islands
A bouquet of richness and complexity without being overdone or compromising on the core fruit signatures. Fresh peach and red apple, floral and mineral with a stone and hard clay quality. Delicious on the palate, quite taut and youthful with a squeeze of citrus and barrel spice, then flavours of cashew nut, apple and white stone fruits, even a whisper of pineapple. Dry with very fine tannins and medium+ acid line. Also a wine that will benefit from some cellar time if desired with best drinking from 2024 through 2029.
