Warramate Chardonnay 2023 auckland This particular bottling felt unusuallyReflective of a cooler year, this Chardonnay displays oyster shell minerality with a grapefruit freshness, then some more weighty melon and pawpaw fruits.

A pithy texture lends weight and long lingering finish deliver a refreshing wine.
