Matahiwi Holly 2020 Chardonnay is a dry, full-bodied and zesty Chard from Hawke's Bay, North Island wine region. Fragrant with gold apple, baked peach pie aromas, this is a gorgeously supple and layered wine with ripe peach, golden apple, baked pastry, vanilla and sweet toasty oak spice flavours elegant and long on the palate. Just lovely! Drink or hold.

Chardonnay food pairings: grilled pork chops, onion tarte, vegetarian pizza, grilled chicken with lime-lemon zest.

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.

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.
