Classic Wines of New Zealand (2nd ed.) - 2005
*****
Youthful, light lemon / green. Voluminous bouquet of biscuits
and grilled nuts, with yeastly, earthy notes. Very fresh, vibrant
and tightly structured, with immaculate grapefruit and lime characters,
lively acidity and a minerally streak. White Burgundy style. Will
be long-lived.

Winemaker Claire Mulholland demonstrates
a deft touch with this elegant wine. A delicate balance of ripe
fruit, biscuits and a bit of butterscotch that glides effortlessly
across the palate.

Martinborough Vineyard’s Chardonnay has always been a blockbuster
style. This vintage is no exception – a big and very complex
wine with intense fruit flavours that compete with even stronger
winemaker influence. (Top 10 NZ Chardonnays)
