Ata Rangi Potiki Chardonnay 2023

Ata Rangi Potiki Chardonnay 2023

• Region: Wairarapa
• Sub-Region: Martinborough

Vineyard Potiki ("youngest sibling") is crafted from younger vines on the Ata Rangi estate. The vineyard management focuses on capturing the bright, energetic fruit profile that these younger blocks offer compared to their older counterparts.

Wine True to its name, this is a lively and expressive Chardonnay. It bursts with aromas of fresh nectarine and grapefruit, rounded out by a gentle creaminess from partial malolactic fermentation and seasoned French oak aging.
