It kicks off with a hint of flinty, struck match on the nose and has tangy regional stonefruits on the palate. French oak is evident for a light buttered toast character, but is really only there to add texture and some subtle wood spice complexity. The beauty here is that this wine is tight but it is certainly not lean. The underlying fruit weight shines through on the palate and the finish is quite juicy and rewarding with crisp citrus notes cleaning up the conversation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eWe loved the previous vintages and our allocations of both releases sold through in a nanosecond. The word is out that there is something special going on here and we expect this new 2024 release to fly as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis wine has been made to be cellared and there is no doubt that its inner secrets will be revealed in full-effect over the coming 3-6 years. If drinking earlier, the Helio team recommend decanting. We agree.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Advintage Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43376454107225,"sku":"1094","price":41.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/7602\/5177\/files\/1094.jpg?v=1781772576","url":"https:\/\/advintage.co.nz\/products\/helio-chardonnay-2024","provider":"Advintage Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
