Leveret Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2021

Leveret Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2021

• Region: Hawke's Bay
• Sub-Region: Central Coast / Gimblett Gravels

Vineyard The Reserve is a selection of the very best barrels from the estate’s premium vineyard sites. These blocks are managed to ensure low yields and high flavor concentration, reflecting the warmth and stony terroir of the Hawke's Bay growing season.

Wine A powerful and opulent Reserve style. This wine showcases ripe nectarine, grilled pineapple, and sophisticated toasted oak complexities. The palate is richly textured and weighty, supported by a backbone of vibrant acidity and a long, nutty finish.
