Kumeu River 'Mates Vineyard' Chardonnay 2018
More than twenty vintages of this wine have been made, with the low-yielding Mendoza clone Chardonnay. The vine age and the distinctive characteristics of this clone help give Mate's Vineyard its unique character. This vineyard has always displayed a lifted fruit aroma reminiscent of ripe pears, but with a mineral edge. The palate is always long and concentrated. This vintage has given a wine that shows the complexity and concentration expected from this vineyard with great tautness and length on the palate.
This will evolve beautifully over the next six to eight years and beyond.
