Keltern Chardonnay (Gift Box)
Planted in 1999 on the former Ngaruroro riverbed in Hawkes Bay, Keltern Vineyard is renowned as one of New Zealand's premier sites for Chardonnay. Minimal intervention winemaking allows this special site to express its unique characteristics, which will develop further with bottle age.
Displaying a brilliant lime-tinted gold hue in the glass, the nose offers an enticing and exotic mix with aromas of ripe stonefruit, fresh lemon and warm brioche, complemented by underlying notes of spicy oak. The palate is generous and silky initially then the long line of concentration and natural acidity leads to a sustained and elegant finish. This wine will develop further complexity, mineral and toast like characters with careful cellaring.
