Trinity Hill, Gimblett Gravels, Chardonnay 2023

Tasting Notes

Fragrant aromas of white nectarine, citrus blossom and lime zest are layered with toasted nuts, flint and savoury spice. The palate is refined yet vibrant, carried by a fine acid backbone and beautifully integrated toasty oak. Expect tangy stone fruit and citrus notes wrapped in a lingering, salivating finish. A wine of finesse and tension – complex, elegant and undeniably Hawke’s Bay.

The Blend

100% Chardonnay, grown in the famed Gimblett Gravels and surrounding subregions of Hawke’s Bay. Fermented and matured with French oak to enhance texture and complexity while retaining freshness and mineral drive.

Pair it With

Roast chicken with lemon and thyme, creamy seafood pasta, or chargrilled zucchini with feta and herbs. Perfect for dinner parties or quiet, candle-lit meals.
