1 x Greenhough Road Block Nelson Chardonnay 2020

Predominantly from the Morison Vineyard, Hope, planted in 2000, managed organically and BioGro certified since 2014. Clone B95 is planted in the top part of the vineyard where 1-1.5 meters of heavier clays, washed down from the hills immediately behind, overlay the loamy, stony gravels typical of this part of the Waimea Plains. Vines are cane pruned on a single fruiting wire with a target yield of 7-8 tonnes per hectare. Machine harvested and de-stemmed in the vineyard and transferred directly to press. Juice was briefly settled and racked with moderate solids to French oak barriques and puncheons, (15% new) for fermentation. For this vintage all barrels were inoculated with selected yeast. The wine has undergone full secondary malolactic fermentation (MLF) to further soften acidity and enhance mouthfeel.

Certified Organic.

Awarded 92/100 points: Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2022

"Bright, pale yellow with depth and a green hue, even colour throughout. The nose is full and generous, with melon, apple and pear aromas interweaving walnut, toasted almond, spice and oyster shell minerals. Medium-bodied, the palate is elegantly presented, melon, apple and pear aromas enriched by toasty oak elements, nuances of almond and walnut melded with warm butter and spice, and finished with an umami note and oyster shell minerals. The mouthfeel is creamy and broad; fine-textured phenolics and minerals contribute to an elegant line supported by a balanced and fine acid line. This nutty Chardonnay shows harmonious flavours of generous fruit and oak elements, with excellent intensity and a buttery mouthfeel. Match with roasted chicken and pineapple glazed ham over the next 3-5 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Aug 2022

"A smooth textured and very stylish expression of Chardonnay with aromas and flavours of fresh white peach and pear, some apple and grapefruit. There’s a clay soil and fine wood spice quality adding complexity. Fine, pure and new on the palate with a silky texture touching first then flavours of white fleshed orchard fruit with a note of citrus. Tannins are very fine with a salivating acid line pulling all the attributes together. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2025" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Sep 2022

Food Pairing: The lovely pithy texture in this wine will make it perfect for classic parings of crayfish, fresh grilled snapper and shellfish. You’ll find those served at The Boathouse most days too.

"Bright, pale straw-yellow with some depth and a green hue, lighter on edge. The nose is soft with an elegant scent of stonefruit citrus intermix a light note of vanilla cream and a hint of almond. Medium-full bodied, more expressive on the palate, peaches and nectarines along with a little grapefruit interweave almond biscuit, vanilla cream. An elegant, fine-textured phenolic line added to the mouthfeel, linger with nutty nuances to a sustained, satisfying finish. Match with baked chicken pie and quiche lorraine over the next 3 years" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews, Jan 2021
