  Just a very good bottle of Chardonnay. Kumeu continues to punch so far above its weight - would have paid at least 3-5X this price for a White Burgundy, and most would not be as good. I will continue to buy these wines every chance I get

  Mid-yellow colour; elegant, medium weight, slightly buttery, with a discreet oak hint and good length. A stylish wine, drinking well now.

  Pale gold colour. Pronounced nose aromas of cream, hazelnuts, peaches and apricots. High acidity, alcohol and body, long finish.
  Really enjoyable wine, well balanced fruit, oak and MLF with a refreshing backbone of acidity.

  Opened in error! Confused the bottle with the Estate wine, of which I have 6 of same vintage. Label identical except for the words Hunting Hill!
  
  Anyway, it was very pleasant, though I suspect too early for its maximum potential, and not noticeably superior to the Estate wine yet. Maybe a little less evolved and more restrained.
