Overview:
Greywacke Chardonnay 2022 is a poised and layered expression of Marlborough, combining ripe stonefruit richness with flinty minerality and subtle oak complexity. Crafted from hand-picked fruit and matured in French oak barriques, this wine balances golden peach and caramelised fig with savoury biscuity notes, roasted nuts and a touch of wood smoke. Structured, generous and ageworthy, it captures both elegance and depth in equal measure.
Tasting Notes:
Enticing aromas of brown sugar, vanilla custard and lemon curd lead to a palate of ripe golden peaches, caramelised figs and flinty minerality. Earthy hints of hay, roasted nuts and wood smoke add further intrigue. A wine of excellent structure and ageing potential, finishing long and harmonious.
