DOG POINT VINEYARD CHARDONNAY 2014
A complex cool climate Chardonnay with intensity and refreshing acidity. 2/3 Mendoza, 1/3 B95 clones hand-picked from our home vineyard at 5 tonnes/ha (30hl/ha), from vines dating back to 1981. Fruit is whole bunch pressed and transferred directly to French oak barrels (15% new) and left to undergo indigenous primary and secondary malolactic fermentations for 18 months in barrel. Bottled without fining.
TASTING NOTES:
Bouquet: Restrained flintiness and patisserie notes.
Palate: Citrus core and mineral backbone, balanced, texture, fresh acidity.
Food match: Scallops, white fish and BBQ Pork.
Cellaring: 3-5 years.
REVIEWS:
"One of the best examples of Chardonnay from New Zealand, this is vivid, stylish and expressive with layers of sweet cream, orange blossom, nutmeg and mango flavors that are rich, juicy and succulent, revealing plenty of intensity and energy on the long lingering finish. Drink now through 2021." -93 Points, Mary-Ann Worobiec, Wine Spectator
