Neudorf Tiritiri Chardonnay 2019
Delicious rounded, full palate weight with a streak of ripe yet lively acidity that enlivens the palate. Soft brioche flavours overlay ripe citrus (lemon) characters that are bound with river stone minerality.
From the first smell you know this is a wine crafted by the talented team at Neudorf, it reflects the familial characters we have come to expect from Neudorf wines and, even though this wine was 100% fermented in oak (13% new French oak), the oak doesn't make itself overtly known in the flavours, the wild ferment and extended time on lees has added texture and brioche notes while letting the citrus fruit shine.
A delicious wine that is outstanding value for money
