Marlborough, New Zealand, is famed for its vibrant, zesty whites, but winemaking duo Will and Rachel Hoare saw untapped potential. Inspired by Burgundy, they focus on individual sites to craft wines that express a true sense of place. Their elegant Chardonnay comes from a small plot of 40-year-old vines on an ancient alluvial riverbed. Refined and masterful, it is characterised by citrus, white peach, minerality, and subtle biscuit notes from a few months in French oak. A must-try for lovers of Burgundian whites.
