Chardonnay Estate 2020, Kumeu River24. 95 per bottle 13% ABV "Intense and complex chardonnay with lemons and peaches, as well as pastry and fresh cream. The palate is stacked with ripe peach flavor and fresher, citrus tones and has complex, layered texture. Classy wine. Drink now. Screw cap." 95 Nick Stock, JamesSuckling. com, August 2021
