yet it rejects the over-building of structure into it

with white flowers and citrus on the nose

Though the Sattler's Vineyard in Santa Clara is quite hot and dry

It shows an exquisite balance of understated white flowers with a hint of yuzu citrus

Smelling and tasting this wine reminds you of the Red Mountain landscape

2020 | Smith & Sheth 'Cru' Heretaunga Chardonnay | Hawke's Bay Lemelson Vineyards yet it rejects the over-buildingA sophisticated, pure and silky textured bouquet, fresh peach and red apple, salty air and a clay stone mineral quality. The oak seam is noticeable but not overdone, with a nut and baking spice complexity. A powerful satin texture is contrasted by a core of fruit, flavours of new and mild toasted barrel. Refreshing, lengthy and complex. 95 Pts Decanter
