2008 Kumeu River Hunting Hill Chardonnay
|
|
"The 2008 Hunting Hill Chardonnay comes from a vineyard just across from the winery, also planted to Clone 5. It’s a slightly cooler site with an iron pan running beneath the vineyard. This is the third vintage of this label. Made in a similar fashion to the Coddington Chardonnay, this wine gives powerful lime/lemon aromas with some grapefruit zest and orange blossom plus a whiff of chalk. Very crisp, intense and silky, this is a more restrained, tight-knit expression leaving a very long mineral and citrus zest finish. Built for the cellar, this wine should be best 2014 to 2019+. Around 1000 cases were made." 93+/100 Robert Parkers Wine Advocate
