In its youth, this concentrated wine is pale in the glass and displays aromas of white fleshed stone fruit, flowers, biscuit and hazelnut. Intricate barrel fermentation influences meld with stone fruit and acidity on the palate, forming a refined marriage of style and length. Cellar this wine with confidence for up to 8 years from vintage.

Established in 1994 and named after the Southern landmark range of the Wither Hills that border the vineyards, Wither Hills has always been dedicated to the philosophy that exceptional wines are created in the vineyard. Now one of New Zealand's most popular brands - Wairau Valley, at it's best. Pure and elegant, Wither Hills Chardonnay showcases cool climate characters of fresh lime and white peach with French oak nuances. We make some fantastic Chardonnay here in Marlborough and it's a wine I drink in any season - in the sunshine with a cheese platter and great company, or rugged up with a winter warming risotto. Sally Williams - Wither Hills Winemaker
