Kumeu River Chardonnay is drawn from six different vineyard sites in the Kumeu Region. They are particularly careful in selecting only the very best grapes from these vineyards for their Kumeu River Estate label. The excellent 2022 vintage came on the heels of three others, in a magnificent chain of four superb quality harvests. The Kumeu vineyards that contribute to this wine gave us a blend of Chardonnay that is particularly ripe, peachy and not only delicious to drink but also has the concentration and lingering complexity that we expect from this wine. This is quality Chardonnay of style and pedigree that we know has the capability of aging as well as any of its predecessors.
