If you’re looking for a chardonnay bursting with hazelnut, citrus and hints of toast and smoke then this is for you. North Canterbury has real talent for producing chardonnay showing sensational minerality. Combine that with a skilled winemaker who can create creamy, nutty notes in the palate spectrum – then you’ve got a great little sip. The vines are 15 years old and grow on Glasnevin gravels soils on MacKenzies Rd in the heart of Waipara. Sip with classic creamy carbonara.
