te Pā Reserve Collection Auntsfield Chardonnay
Shipping New Zealand wide
The 'big brother' of our Champion te Pa Chardonnay. White peach and yellow grapefruit aromatics are supported by subtle cashew butter and citrus blossom aromatics.
Some high-quality oak adds a wisp of flinty smoke and some vanilla pod, curry leaf, and butterscotch notes.
The palate is beautifully textured, taut but elegant with a generosity of flavour. Marzipan, preserved lemon, and spice flavours sprinkled over a core of vanilla bean infused crème Brulé. A delicate oyster shell minerality gives way to a long lingering finish.
