Chardonnay, Maté’s Vineyard, Kumeu – 2006 – 95 points – The Wine Advocate
95 points
“The 2006 Mate’s Vineyard Chardonnay has a different take on the vintage: earthier on the nose with hazelnut and butterscotch developing with time. This has the most elegance and harmony of the three single vineyards with just perfect acidity and harmonious, cohesive finish inflected with apricot and white peach. Very refined, this would challenge the superiority of many white Burgundy wines.”
