Hunters Chardonnay 2023

Hunters Chardonnay 2023

• Region: Marlborough
• Sub-Region: Wairau Valley

Vineyard Sourced from the heart of the Wairau Valley, where the stony riverbed soils provide excellent drainage and reflect heat to the low-yielding vines. Hunter’s takes a traditional approach to Chardonnay, focusing on structural elegance and balance.

Wine This wine displays a bright, focused palate of citrus and green apple. A portion of the wine is fermented in French oak to add weight and a subtle toasted almond character without overwhelming the crisp Marlborough acidity.

Food Pairings

• Classic Caesar salad
• Grilled trout with almonds
• Fettuccine with a light lemon cream sauce
