Wine Expert Note:

This Kumeu River Estate Chardonnay is a bright and balanced white wine. On the nose, it displays aromas of ripe peach, lemon zest and oaky spice. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine is vibrant and creamy, with a juicy core of yellow fruit, lemon curd and a hint of toasted almond. A hint of minerality on the finish lingers for a long, enjoyable finish. Enjoy this white wine with grilled seafood or simply on its own.
