Clearview White Caps Chardonnay 2024

Clearview White Caps Chardonnay 2024

• Region: Hawke's Bay
• Sub-Region: Te Awanga

Vineyard Named after the breaking waves visible from the vineyard, White Caps is a selection of fruit that emphasizes the brighter, more aromatic side of the Te Awanga estate. The soils are free-draining, encouraging the vines to produce vibrant, expressive grapes.

Wine A lighter, more contemporary expression compared to the Reserve. It offers a elegant balance of citrus and stone fruit with a gentle, toasted oak influence. The palate is creamy yet anchored by a refreshing, zesty acidity.

Food Pairings

• Sashimi or sushi platters
• Grilled chicken salad with honey mustard dressing
• Soft cheeses like Camembert or Brie
