Planted in 1990, the Maté`s vineyard is the most powerful and splendid of all the Kumeu River bottles. It is planted with the Mendoza Chardonnay clone, which naturally gives wines that are generous in both body and flavour. In 2022 this fermented and aged for 11 months in 30% new french oak barrels. Pale lemon-gold colour, aromas are taut and fine, having notes of flint, pear, white peach and lemon. Palate is full bodied and tightly coiled, showing power and richness of concentration. At the same time, this has energy and vibrancy, texture being creamy, the finish being long and fresh (for drinking 2024-2030+).
