"The 2009 Estate Chardonnay gives intense notes of ripe apricots, guava, green mango and honey coated nuts with nuances of lightly browned toast and white blossoms. Medium bodied with a silken texture, it gives great concentration, crisp acidity and a long toasty finish. Drinking now, it should cellar to 2016+." 91/100 Roberrt Parkers Wine Advocate
"A youthful wine yet exhibits seductive complexity and irresistible aromas of white peach, citrus, oatmeal and a touch of flint. The palate is concentrated and beautifully integrated with fine texture and bright acidity providing superb structure and a refreshing mouthfeel. As always, this vintage of Kumeu River Chardonnay is meticulously detailed with an outstanding potential to develop gratifying flavours. At its best: now to 2016." 94/100 Sam Kim- Senior Wine Judge.
