Kumeu River Chardonnay, Hunting Hill, Kumeu — 2019 – Wine Enthusiast – 93 Points
93 points
This wine opens with delicate melon, peach and citrus notes, backed by honeysuckle and fresh oats. The palate shows the restraint and poise for which this label is known. It crackles with acidity and a talc-like texture, the pure fruit backed by brioche oak characteristics. Harmonious, varietal and expressive of place, this is a polished bottling for drinking now.
