Kumeu River Coddington Chardonnay is a premier New Zealand wine with an impressive depth of character. This golden-tinted Chardonnay delicately balances a full, ripe fruitiness with an elegant undercurrent of crisp acidity, creating a delightful and complex palate. Its bouquet boasts fragrant notes of lemon, peach and a hint of chalky minerality. Undertones of brioche and butter culminate in a refined, lingering finish, reflecting its careful maturation in French oak barrels. It's a highly recommended wine that would compliment a gourmet dining experience gracefully.
