Elephant Hill 'Salomé' Chardonnay 2022, Hawkes Bay

Tasted over 3 days this wine delivers on complexity, weight, elegance and sophistication. A bouquet and palate of ripe yellow stone fruits, sweet grapefruit peel, layers of wood spice and citrus, baking spices and some wood smoke. There’s also some earth smoke reflecting the essence of place with a saline and dry stone qualities. Full-bodied with a complexity and elegance, spice and acidity, gentle warmth form alcohol and a long complex finish. A great wine with best drinking from 2025 through 2034.
