Wine Expert Note:

This Kumeu River Coddington Chardonnay is a truly special white wine from New Zealand. It has a rich golden color with a nose of ripe yellow and green apples, lemon curd, honey, and toasty oak. On the palate, this wine reveals layers of fresh fruit and creamy vanilla, with a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. The acidity is nicely balanced and the finish is long and lingering.

Expert Rating:

Porter-Bass Chardonnay is produced from grapes that are certified organic and sourced from the cool Sonoma Coast. The vineyard is planted with blocks located on the cooler north-facing sides, allowing for an extended growing season leading to a slow aromatic development. Ceritas favor minimal intervention in the cellar, aiming to express the site through the variety. The wines are typically aged in a small proportion of new or used oak to give just a hint of spice to the wine without masking the variety or sense of place.
