The Hunting Lodge 'Ararimu' Chardonnay 2023, Waimauku, Auckland

A delicious wine sitting in a perfect drinking window. Flavours and textures of fresh peach and vanilla custard, a satin-creamy mouthfeel then pear and baked apple, more baking spice ideas and a clay earthy quality. Full-bodied, ripe and very stylish with fine textures from fruit and wood tannins and a crisp outline from acidity. Well made and ready to drink from day of purchase through 2029.
