Tasting Note
Displaying aromas of bees honey, pear, nectarine and mango, the Private Reserve Hawkes Bay Chardonnay is a well structured wine with a long and satisfying finish. An elegant wine balancing fruit flavours with the nutty characters obtained from aging on lees and light yellow in colour, this wine captures summer.
It is drinking well now or is a wine to cellar for two
to five years so that it can be brought out for
special occasions.
