Kumeu Village Chardonnay 2025

Kumeu Village Chardonnay 2025

• Region: Auckland / Hawke's Bay
• Sub-Region: Kumeu / Rays Road

Vineyard A carefully selected blend of fruit from the estate's Kumeu vineyards and the newer Rays Road site. This multi-region approach ensures the wine carries the signature Kumeu River structural purity while remaining approachable in its youth.

Wine Consistently one of the best value Chardonnays in New Zealand. It is un-oaked to highlight the pure varietal character of peach and citrus zest. The palate is clean and energetic with a beautiful stony minerality and a crisp, dry finish.
