"Aromas and flavours of ripe peach and apricot, warm grapefruit, mild vanilla and other baking spices of oak and a gentle dry stone earthy quality. Almost full-bodied, medium+ acidity, a fine lees and wood tannin texture, lengthy finish, balanced and well made. Best drinking from today and through 2024" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier
"Moderately ripe and textural chardonnay with peach, nectarine, stone fruit, citrus, salty and spicy oak flavours. A crisp, dry wine, with smooth texture and dry, mouth-watering finish" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Aug 2020
Sourced from vineyards in Hawke’s Bay, this Mystery wine is a rich style of Chardonnay with an accent on strong fruit flavours. Ripe Melon, nectarine and summer peach aromas abound with oak hints of cedar and spice and a long, full, yet soft finish. Ready to drink now or cellar until 2022.
Having sold out of the previous vintage of this popular Mystery Chardonnay, we're excited to have this back and with another great vintage. This Mystery Chardonnay is a mix of clones Mendoza and Fifteen, from two districts in Hawke’s Bay. Free draining stony gravels are the pre-dominant soil structure in this area. The crop was kept low and well exposed to ensure even ripening and optimal flavour development.
This Chardonnay was fermented with a range of yeasts, in both barrels and stainless steel tanks. Once fermentation was completed, the wine was left for an extended period on yeast lees, with a portion undergoing malolactic fermentation. This has helped to promote textural qualities and mouth feel. This wine exhibits stonefruit and ripe citrus flavours with a rich, buttery texture.
Food Pairing: Ideally matched with creamy pasta and white meat dishes, it is also delicious with seafood.
