Astrolabe Marlborough Chardonnay 2024

Astrolabe Marlborough Chardonnay 2024

• Region: Marlborough
• Sub-Region: Wairau & Awatere Valleys

Vineyard Grapes are sourced from sustainably managed vineyards across the Wairau and Awatere Valleys. The combination of cooler Awatere fruit and the riper profiles of the Wairau creates a balanced, multifaceted representation of the Marlborough region.

Wine This Chardonnay is focused and elegant, displaying pure aromas of lemon curd, white peach, and a distinct flinty mineral note. Fermentation in French oak adds a delicate toasted nuttiness without overshadowing the vibrant, linear acidity.

Food Pairings

• Fresh oysters with a lemon mignonette
