Sensory Description
Intense aromas of golden peach, apricot and lemon zest unfold into nuances of nougat, nutmeg and a flicker of salinity. On the palate, expect vibrant citrus acidity balanced by white‑fleshed fruit richness, fine integrated oak tannin and a seamless, focused texture. The finish is persistent, elegant and refined.

Producer’s Background
Dating from 1896 and still family‑owned, Te Mata Estate is one of New Zealand’s most revered wineries, based in Hawke’s Bay’s historic Havelock Hills. Early plantings of Chardonnay at the Elston vineyard—among the country’s oldest—reflect a legacy of precision viticulture. Under the stewardship of the Buck family, Te Mata has earned international acclaim for flagship wines like Coleraine, Bullnose Syrah, and its premium Elston Chardonnay.

Serving Suggestions
Serve chilled at 50–55 °F. This Chardonnay pairs beautifully with grilled lobster, butter-poached shellfish, roasted poultry, soft-ripened cheeses like Brie or Camembert, or simply enjoyed on its own to savor its evolving nuances.
