Craggy Range Gimblett Gravels Chardonnay 2024

$41.99

94/100 'Excellent' | Cameron Douglas MS

Wonderfully restrained - where oak, fruit weight and acidity work in harmony to produce a fluent style that is understated in its youth.

Sourced entirely from the renowned Gimblett Gravels Vineyard, each individual Chardonnay clone contributes its own personality, adding layers of citrus, white peach, subtle flint and finely judged barrel complexity. The result is a wine of remarkable poise and precision, with a long, mineral finish that hints at even greater things to come. Enjoy now with a decant, or cellar confidently over the next decade as this exceptional Hawke's Bay Chardonnay continues to evolve.

Tasting Notes

Cameron Douglas MS writes "Another delicious wine from the CR stable with a fine balance and youthful urgency. Aromas and flavours of fresh white fleshed stone fruits and sweet citrus, pear and apple then layers of leesy vanilla and mineral complexities. Dry with a medium+ weighted mouthfeel, satin textures with contrasting acid line and core flavours of stone and citrus fruits. Balanced and well made with medium+ length and complexity. Best from day of purchase through 2030."

The winery writes "Pale lime to pale straw. Vibrant aromas of brioche, oyster shell and white peach. A precise and impressive palate, with notes of citrus peel, warm bread directed by a fine acid backbone giving incredible length. A wine with great delineation, a true reflection of the unique Gimblett Gravels Vineyard."
