Bilancia Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2023

• Region: Hawke's Bay
• Sub-Region: Roys Hill

Vineyard Sourced from the steep, terraced slopes of Roys Hill. The vines struggle in shallow soils to produce small, highly concentrated berries, capturing intense varietal character and structural power.

Wine Sophisticated and tightly wound, showing notes of white flowers, grapefruit, and a distinct gunflint reduction. The palate is energetic and long, featuring a fine-grained oak texture and a refreshing, saline mineral finish.

Food Pairings

• Roast chicken with lemon and tarragon
• Pan-fried halloumi with a squeeze of lime
• Fresh snapper sashimi with ginger and soy
