2022 Neudorf Tiritiri Chardonnay

Founders Tim and Judy Finn set up Neudorf Vineyards on the North facing slopes of the Moutere Hills in Nelson New Zealand in 1978. All Neudorf's owned blocks are certified organic.
Barrel fermented in 10% new French oak followed by maturation for a period 10 months on full lees. Brilliant pale straw colour with greenish tinged edges and a watery hue. Lifted aromas of white peach, nectarine and dried honey are complimented by biscuity nougat, crème brulee and gun flint notes. Rich, fleshy white peach and nectarine fruits drive the creamy textured palate with some crème brulee, dried honey, nougat and delicate cashew elements lying underneath. Nicely measured acidity lends just the right amount of freshness to the long moreish finish. Rich and beautifully shaped without being heavy.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 13.5%
