GOLD MEDAL | Sakura Japan Women's Wine Awards 2024
FIVE STARS 93/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit - "Upfront and delectably appealing"
The Gold Medal winning 2022 release is another banger and is seriously raising the standard with Californian Chardonnays. Juicy with a rich body, full of creamy notes and refreshing acidity, this is a seriously good glass of wine, plush and fulfilling. With spicy American oak notes and caramel textures, yet still very fruit forward - this lovely drop shows why American chardonnays are red hot in New Zealand, and this is one of the best examples yet.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Rich and opulent, the fragrant bouquet shows golden peach, pineapple, vanillin oak and brioche aromas, leading to a silky-smooth palate that's creamy and flavoursome. Upfront and delectably appealing."
The winery writes "Gnarly Head Chardonnay raises the bar for this classic varietal. This Chardonnay is a juicy, full-bodied wine that explodes with bright citrusy aromas of lemon zest, honeydew melon and just a hint of toasty oak. Big bold flavors of citrus and apple with a touch of vanilla ensure a perfect match with a range of cuisine, including chicken curry, grilled shrimp and spaghetti carbonara."
