Ata Rangi Craighall Chardonnay

An outstanding season for Ata Rangi’s premium chardonnay, a wine that builds slowly and evenly into a long, poised finish of mineral texture matched to the subtlety of its fruit, yet upholding a depth and confidence of its own. An enticing bouquet of white flower perfume, lemon juice and pristine white peach introduces an impeccably poised palate of vibrant energy, delicacy, seamless line and persistence. The acid profile is electrically charged and impeccably married to its fruit. $48 at Prince.
