Folding Hill Wine Company
Estate Chardonnay 2022 750ml

Harvested by hand from our small block of Chardonnay vines this, our third vintage, captures the purity and freshness that are the essence of Chardonnay. A nose of grapefruit and peach leads on to flavours of lemon, stone fruit, almond and wood spice, layered with a subtle mineral quality. This delicious expression of Chardonnay from Central Otago is perfectly balanced, with an elegant mouthfeel and long finish. Drinking amazingly right now but will develop nicely with a year or two of cellar age.

“Splendidly ripe and elegantly complex, showing ripe peach, fig, nougat and almond meal characters, followed by a succulent palate offering fleshy texture combined with elegantly pitched acidity, finishing long and satisfying. At its best: now to 2028.”

94 points 5 stars outstanding Sam Kim, Wine Orbit.
