Nga Waka Chardonnay 2022 750ml

Description

Nga Waka Chardonnay is 100% barrel fermented in tight-grain French oak barriques, 20% of which are new. The wine spends 10 months in barrel and is lees-stirred monthly.

A rich, complex Martinborough Chardonnay showing intense ripe stone fruit flavours underpinned by subtle spicy and barrel fermentation characters, enhanced by a silky palate texture and a elegant lingering finish.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit – 5 Stars

Stylish and elegant, the wine shows ripe stone fruit, nougat, lemon zest, toasted almond and oatmeal nuances on the nose, followed by a beautifully weighted palate that’s succulent and persistent. Wonderfully framed by bright acidity, finishing long and expansive. At its best: now to 2029
