Marlborough Dog Point Chardonnay 2020
13.5%
0.75L
Intensity
A New-Zealand Chardonnay matured in wood that carries a lovely complexity, ideal for accompanying grilled dishes.
More infoThis New-Zealand Chardonnay was matured for 18 months in French oak barrels (with just 15% new wood). It has a complex aromatic bouquet marked by notes of citrus, smoke, flint and toasted bread, evidence of its élevage in wood. To taste, it reveals itself to be well-balanced between power, richness and liveliness. It can be enjoyed alongside dishes such as white, grilled fish within ten years.

About the Producer Dog Point
Dog Point domain takes its name from the first colonies (for the most part from England) and the sheep that accompanied them, which were guarded by dogs. The lost dogs had a tendency to regroup on a hill overlooking the Wairau River which was nicknamed Dog Point. This name was therefore given to one of the first vineyards in the region (to the north of the South Island). This family owned domain is run by Matt Sutherland. One of New Zealand's leading domains!
