James Suckling
"Discover the quality of New Zealand terroirs through this sublime Chardonnay!"
"Lively and clear, with aromas of dried apple, mineral and stone, as well as notes of honeysuckle. Medium-bodied, it has a lively, crisp acidity and flavors of nougat and baked apple. The finish has notes of lime. Its brightness is impressive. Ready to drink now. Screw cap." (James Suckling 2024) • Screw cap
