Reviews and Ratings

The Estate Chardonnay is a combination of fruit from our estate chardonnay vineyards. This marriage of the different terroirs results in a wine of great complexity and balance. A year in French Oak barrels was followed by six months in stainless steel tanks. The estate Chardonnay is a medium bodied chardonnay, with a perfect balance of fruit and structure. The nose is layered, beginning with fresh, crisp lemony citrus and ripe MacIntosh apples. The characteristic minerality of our Estate vineyards is evident, contributing a ‘stoney’ character to the wine. Estate Chardonnay is equally suited to sipping on its own, or being paired with an array of foods.

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
