Honeysuckle, baked apple and brioche aromas overlay some flinty minerality on the nose. A soft texture on the palate with a full mouth feel of rich pear, stone fruit and custard notes. The long palate shows good freshness from the cool vintage.

Consistently beautiful wines that are crafted to capture the essence of their origins.

Rabbit Ranch Chardonnay is made to express the very best of Central Otago's cool climate, unique schist soils and grand vistas. Handpicking, whole bunch pressing, minimal intervention and oak result in an expressive, energetic wine displaying the typical white floral and ripe citrus notes that are a hallmark of the region's best Chardonnay.

Vibrant green in colour, the nose is fresh with lime juice cordial, white peach and hints of subtle creamy French oak. The palate is crisp and fresh, lime and honey dew melon linger, intertwined with well integrated oak and defined acidity that gives structure and length.

A snout-smackingly good, weighty and refreshing Chardonnay, with layers of ripe rock melon, toasted almond and a hint of squeezed lemon.

Lifted citrus notes. Pear and lemon butter flavours. Vibrant and restrained, with just a feather dusting of spicy oak and a clean finish with lingering citrus notes. Great with lighter chicken, pasta or seafood dishes, terrific with sushi!

The Stoneleigh range consists of distinctive, elegant, fruit forward Marlborough wines that reflect the unique terroir of their stone-studded vineyards.

This wine exhibits bright citrus and ripe stone fruit aromas entwined with subtle notes of clove and oak spice. The palate is fresh and vibrant with ripe flavours of juicy peach merged with nutty lees and ginger highlights. The flavours from an intense core with very good depth, lifted with fresh acidity. The flavours carry to a long finish of fruit, and spicy, mealy oak. A fresh and elegant Chardonnay with some depth of stone fruits, nutty lees and oak flavours on a fresh, fine textured palate.

The wine has delightful aromas of white peach, nectarines and subtle citrus zest join hints of cashew and cream. Fresh flavours of stone fruit combine with cashews and an underlying toastiness from the barrel fermentation to deliver a mouth-filling, enjoyable wine. It has a clean, elegant palate, a zesty acid backbone and long, persistent finish. A small portion of this wine was barrel fermented and then lees stirred for 4 months. After 6 - 8 months maturation in French oak, the wine was blended and bottled.

Sourced exclusively from Te Mata Estate's own vineyards. This Estate Vineyards Chardonnay was harvested from Bridge Pa Triangle, Woodthorpe Terraces and Havelock Hills vineyards.

Delicious on its own, or a wonderful partner for both simply prepared and fuller flavoured seafood and white meat dishes.

A classic Gisborne Chardonnay - full bodied with loads of lovely toasty, buttery flavours.
