TRINITY HILL "HAWKES BAY" Chardonnay 2024 (750ml)

Tasting notes;

Typical, fresh aromatics of quality Hawke’s Bay Chardonnay are evident on the nose, including ripe stone fruit, citrus, and grapefruit. These are complemented on the palate by a creamy richness, hints of roasted nuts and gunflint, and a mouthwatering finish.

Reviews:

92 points, Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Aug 2024

"A nicely elegant expression of Chardonnay with a clean, soft oak and peachy bouquet. Flavours on the palate extend these ideas into apple and some grapefruit. The lees work and use of wood layer in texture and breadth, flavours and spice. Medium+ acid line, a mix of spice, tree and citrus fruits with a fine seam of stone fruits, fine tannins and balanced even finish. Best drinking from early to mid 2025 through 2029" 

90 points and 4.5 Stars, Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Aug 2024

"Charming and elegantly expressed, the bouquet shows white flesh peach, lemon pith, nougat and oatmeal nuances, leading to a gently weighted palate that's supple and finely textured, finishing linear and structured. At its best: now to 2027"
