Why I chose it:  

- Difficult vintage (Cyclone Gabrielle) 

- Be guided by vintage ratings but be aware that there are many exceptions 

- Sorting machine takes a photo of every grape and rejects sub-standard fruit. 

 

What does it taste like?

A rich and flavoursome chardonnay that will be appreciated by fans of the “big and buttery” style. Slightly toffee-ish, mouth-filling wine with enough richness and flavour to handle a mild butter chicken curry. 

Why it’s a bargain:

I’d buy it if it was $40 

 

Where can you buy it? 

Wine Collective Direct $33.31. Paritua Winery, Hawke’s Bay $25 

 

Food match?

Roast chicken, most seafood 

 

Will it keep?
