Notes | Winemakers Notes Gisborne had a stunner of a year in 2020. Our Gisborne Chardonnay (73%) Viognier (27%) is entirely sourced from Doug Bell’s vineyard at the base of the Hexton Hills. The chardonnay component was vinified in stainless steel tanks, while the Viognier was fermented in seasoned French oak barrels. The Chardonnay component gives the wine focus and familiarity while the Viognier component adds weight and richness along with breadth and length of flavour. The Viognier also brings a hint of exotica to the assemblage.Tasting Notes Colour: This wine is pale gold in its youth, but with time will develop straw and deeper gold tints. Bouquet: Stonefruit dominates the nose, peaches, nectarines, apricots. Mingled with this are floral notes (lemon flower and orange flower) backed by gentle spice notes. Palate: Viognier gives weight and richness on the start, then the Chardonnay component kicks in, focusing and giving structure to the palate. |
