Wither Hills Marlborough Chardonnay (750ml) is an exceptionally elegant, vibrant, and beautifully balanced white wine that captures the pure, sun-drenched terroir of New Zealand's premier wine region. Established in 1994, Wither Hills is named after the iconic, landmark Wither Hills range that borders the southern flank of the Wairau Valley. Sourced from exceptional estate vineyards managed strictly under sustainable practices, this classic wine delivers a plush, fruit-driven, and finely structured profile where bright citrus and stone fruit are enhanced by a sophisticated touch of creamy oak richness.
Cool-Climate Vitality & Textured Craftsmanship
The fruit is grown on select riverbed terraces, where unique alluvial soils naturally limit vine vigor to produce grapes with intense flavor concentration. In the cellar, the winemakers employ a blend of traditional and modern methods to build complex layers of texture. The juice is fermented in a mix of temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to safeguard pristine fruit brightness and premium French oak barrels for deep, structural weight. Extended maturation on its fine yeast lees with regular stirring introduces a lovely creaminess while preserving Marlborough's signature, mouthwatering acidity.
Tasting Notes
  • Aroma: Expressive, fresh, and invitingly complex. The nose opens with a fragrant bouquet of ripe yellow nectarine, white peach, and orange blossom, layered over a savory backdrop of roasted almonds, toasted brioche, and a hint of creamy vanilla spice.
  • Palate: Medium-to-full-bodied, smooth, and wonderfully juicy. It treats the mouth to a succulent core of stone fruit, pink grapefruit, and lemon curd, supported by a finely textured, velvety mid-palate mouthfeel.
  • Finish: Crisp, dry, and exceptionally clean. It tapers off into a persistent finish driven by a precise line of refreshing citrus acidity and a lingering, subtle touch of warm savory oak.
