Valli 2019 Chardonnay

The 2020 harvest was “classic” in the Waitaki in terms of the timing of harvest, the low volume and high quality of the fruit. The limestone-rich soils influence both the shape and the flow of this wine with lovely tension across the mid palate and racy acidity extending the finish. The nose has stone fruit, citrus and a lovely savoury note that is derived from the high solids fermentation. The wine is a juxtaposition of intensity and subtlety with a real limey fruit purity at the core. Made in tiny quantities, this young wine is immediately enjoyable and will continue to reward for another decade
