Kumeu River ESTATE Chardonnay 2023 75cl

Called “White Burgundy in Kiwi clothing” by Neal Martin and "an Auckland Pearl" by Julia Harding MW, no New World producer has received such critical acclaim over the last few years as Kumeu River. It’s no surprise: this is a New Zealand Chardonnay producer crafting wines of Grand Cru quality at village wine prices. And the connection to Burgundy is apt: these wines are dead ringers for top white Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet or Meursault, without losing their own sense of identity. Kumeu River Wines is New Zealand's top Chardonnay producer and best known globally.

Kumeu River Estate Chardonnay is the flagship white from the winery. It is made from grapes grown on six different vineyard sites in Kumeu and is consistently one of New Zealand's greatest dry, full bodied whites with outstanding freshness and complexity. It is drawn from six different vineyard sites in the Kumeu Region. They are particularly careful in selecting only the very best grapes from these vineyards for the Kumeu River Estate label.

This wine has fragrant citrus and peach notes that complement complex butter and toast characteristics. The texture is supple with a beautifully fresh balancing acidity on the finish.
