Kumeu River 'mates' Chardonnay 2023

The 2022 Kumeu River Mates Chardonnay is a beautiful blend of lively fruit and oak influence.

The nose is filled with aromas of fresh peach and lemon, with subtle notes of toasted oak. On the palate, juicy stone fruit flavors mingle with a delicate minerality, balanced by a creamy, rich texture. Hints of sweet vanilla and caramel from the oak aging add complexity and depth to the wine. This is a lovely, well-crafted Chardonnay, with limited stock and a world-famous reputation
