Description
 
Produced from UCD Clone 15 Chardonnay, the 2012 Coddington is a little closed at this youthful stage with delicate white peach, spiced apple and almond notes plus a hint of cedar. It offers a great intensity of apple and stone fruit flavors in the mouth with ginger and while pepper coming through, framed by a pleasant textural grip and racy acid, finishing long. Wine Advocate 92

At Kumeu River Wines our winemaking philosophy is simple. We endeavour to grow grapes of the highest standard and then treat them with respect when we turn them into wine. In this way the potential quality is maximised, and we are able to produce wines that are truly representative of our land. To this end our vineyards are trained on the “Lyre” trellis to optimise their exposure to light and therefore the ripeness of the grapes. Yields are kept low to improve the concentration of aromas and flavours in the grapes, and we harvest all of our grapes by hand. This allows us to remove faulty berries in the field so that our quality grapes may arrive at the winery in pristine condition. The white grapes are all whole-bunch pressed, which is time-consuming but gives us the best quality results. The reds are destemmed and crushed gently before being transferred to fermentation tanks. No yeasts are added, as we rely solely on the indigenous yeasts that are present in the vineyard to conduct our fermentations.
