Aged in 20% new oak, the barrel-fermented and aged 2019 Chardonnay reveals more mocha and nutty notes than the other whites from Escarpment, but it balances those with hints of white peach, melon and understated citrus. Medium to full-bodied, it's round and generous on the palate, plump without being heavy, with a lingering, mouthwatering finish.

Pear, peach and melon flavors are soft and juicy, with a touch of butterscotch and spice notes on the finish. Drink now. 100 cases imported.??–MW??Region: New Zealand Select to Add
