Kumeu River Village Chardonnay Auckland – 2024
CHF 19.90
This is Kumeu River’s entry point Chardonnay. It has amazing freshness, intensity of flavour and even some minerality for such an affordable price and in my mind knocks spots off most generic white Burgundy village wines.
“The wine leads with yellow citrus and crushed shells. It is texturally fine, sleek and tightly coiled around a core of salty acidity. It is complex but composed and very good. ” 92/100pts The Wine Advocate
“2024 was a fantastic year, just very small,” according to winemaker Paul Brajkovich MW. “Weather during flowering wasn’t good in spring in 2023 but ripening in 2024 was excellent, so we have a 40% down in yield but very high quality. The Village wine is a blend of Kumeu and Hawke’s Bay and is a mixture of barrel and tank fermentation.”
