Hunting Hill Chardonnay, Kumeu River 2019

The 2019 Hunting Hill Chardonnay is weighted solely on the back palate and is powerful, tightly structured and salty. This is a wine of magnitude, complexity and textural width, and it shows even more promise for the future than the Coddington, which was looking mouthwateringly full of potential. This is a ripper.

This has attractively creamy aromas with white peach and vanilla, as well as sliced mango and honey. The palate serves up fleshy and mouth-filling peach and mango flavors that wrap together so well on the finish. Love the fruit purity here. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
