      Chardonnay, Maté’s Vineyard, Kumeu — 2021

      Wine Spectator
      93

      "Rich, with toasted hazelnut and spice accents of nutmeg and cardamom to the baked apple, white peach and touches of lemon meringue. Despite the robust, intense flavors, this has a sense of restraint to the crisp thread of acidity and sleek frame."

      Chardonnay, Rays Road, Hawkes Bay — 2021

      Wine Spectator

      "Delivers dried pineapple, peach and dried apricot flavors that have an appealing fleshy, juicy texture. Reveals details of orange blossoms, fennel seed and lemon zest that linger wonderfully on the sleek finish."

      Chardonnay, Estate, Kumeu — 2021

      Wine Spectator
      92

      "This showcases a fresh core of citrus, including pomelo, tangerine and Meyer lemon, with generous citrus zest and an appealing touch of pith. Reveals sea salt, lemon verbena and white flowers that linger on the finish."

      The Wine Advocate

      “Fine and spicy, with a tense line of acidity and phenolics—they feel linear and interwoven—that stream through the fruit. This is a very pretty, pithy Chardonnay with ground white pepper, white flesh peach, crushed shells, layers of juniper berry and star anise/cut fennel inflections.”

      Erin Larkin, September 2023
