Brookfields Marshall Bank Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay 2018 ($34.99) 
Paired with Pacifica Chicken Burgers in the NZ Herald Canvas Magazine 18.1.2020
I love me a chicken burger and given the chance I will always opt for a ripe, rumpty, roast peach-packed example to sip as I snack. Right now, the Brookfields Marshall Bank Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay 2018 ($34.99) is giving me all the grins due to its stonefruit saturation, butterscotchy mid-palate, toasty, oak complexity and fresh, frisky acidity. It’s a style that’ll kickstart even the most flaccid tastebuds and perks up the palate with every swallow. Juicy, beautifully structured and showing great tension and poise – it’s a star.
