Product Notes

Villa Maria Single Vineyard Taylors Pass Chardonnay is a continuously impressive New Zealand white wine. From its luminous golden hue to its invigorating aroma of ripe peaches, honeyed citrus and subtle vanilla, it offers a tantalising bouquet. On the palate, it presents a divine fusion of creamy textures, refined oak notes, and brisk minerality. It finishes on a lingering citrusy note with complex nuances. Recognised for its exquisite balance and impressive depth, this Chardonnay exemplifies the pristine terroir of Taylors Pass. A perfect accompaniment to elegant dishes or savoured on its own, it's the quintessential toast of discerning winelovers.

Tasting Notes

This is a mineral-driven style of Chardonnay, showcasing complex aromas of brioche, gun-smoke and ripe lemon rind that are distinctive from the stony Taylors Pass Vineyard. This elegant Chardonnay expresses flavours of grapefruit, fig, quince and roasted almonds with a restrained and focused acidity on the finish.
