Review

Review for Mahi Marlborough Chardonnay 2019:

Bewertung Mahi Marlborough Chardonnay 2018Cameron Douglas MS: 94/100 (Outstanding). Complex, fragrant, fruit, soil and oak centric bouquet with aromas of white peach and quince, apple and white flowers, vanilla and apricot stone, white smoke and stony soils. On the palate - full-bodied yet very fine and complex, lovely mouthfeel with textures from fine wood tannins, medium+ acidity, tension and poise. Flavours of fruit and wood melt together as the wine warms and opens up in glass. Still youthful so will continue to develop in cellar, but is totally drinkable now and through 2026+.

 

Tasting Note

This wine is a complex, textural wine that exhibits the slight creaminess on the mid-palate. Lovely aromas of peach, quince, apple, vanilla, white flowers and stone. The structure still retains acidity giving length and freshness. Silky and fine on the finish.

Additional information

Type: White wine

Grape varial: Chardonnay

Alcohol: 13% vol

Food match: creamy chicken casserole or rich seafood chowder.

Vineyard: Marlborough, New Zealand. This fruit comes from three vineyards; the Taylor Vineyard which is in the Rapaura area and the Twin Valleys vineyard, and a very small amount from the Mahi home block in front of the winery.

Winemaking: The aim for this Chardonnay is to retain a fresh structure with a complex palate. Mahi therefore minimise the malolactic fermentation so that it is really the vineyards, fruit, wild-ferment and barrel characters that make up the complex nose and palate. All of the vines were intensively hand-tended and the grapes hand-picked and then taken to the winery for whole-cluster pressing. The resulting juice went straight to French oak barrels and fermented with indigenous yeast from the fruit. After fermentation the wine sat on yeast lees for eleven months prior to blending and bottling.
