Paritua 'Willow' Chardonnay 2024, Hawke's Bay

An excellent bouquet, modern, ripe, taut and enticing. Aromas of grapefruit and white peach then scents of barrel and stony soil mineral ideas. As the wine opens out in glass it becomes more complex and intriguing. A dry wine on the palate, tension and texture then core fruit flavours that mirror the bouquet. Fine tannins from both wood and fruit and a backbone of acidity with a gentle flinty quality. Poised and new, a wine that has power and impact, flavour and texture. Best drinking from late 2025 through 2030+.
