Description
 
Established more than 30 years ago, Hunter’s have won over 160 gold medals at national and international wine competitions and today remains the only Marlborough vineyard established in the 1970s to still be owned by its original family. As a major player in kick-starting the “Marlborough sauvignon Blanc” movement, Hunter’s were ahead of their time and they continue to lead the way with new varietals, wine-making techniques and unfaltering consistency.

The nose on this 2022 Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay leads with candied bananas, pineapple husk, white peach and a hint of lychee, and the edges of the aromatics are feathered with preserved citrus, brine, curry leaf and apple skins. In the mouth, the wine is powered by supercharged fruit; it is crystalline in its way, an attribute that I have long-since associated with the Chardonnays from Kumeu River. The flavor is sapid and palate-staining, with just enough salt and savory spices in the fruit to make it super complex as well as powerful. It is precisely folded like origami, each crease in service of the overall shape.* A wine that offers much and assumes nothing. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. 2023 - 2037 Wine Advocate 96
