Maison Noire Fraicheur Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay 2021 $22
If you’re looking for chardonnay that’s not cloaked in oak, then you’ve arrived in the right avenue my friend. Crafted by Guillaume Thomas from fruit grown in a tiny vineyard in the Puketapu region, this wine is layered with lemon, pineapple and grapefruity goodness and boasts a lithe, softly prickly texture in the mouth and a long, crisp finish. Lightly styled and ultra-refreshing.
