Heiner Lobenberg om:
Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay 2022

98+
/100

En begivenhed! Den bedste Chardonnay i New Zealand? Ved siden af eller endda foran Dog Point, helt sikkert. I hvert fald nummer 1 på Nordøen. Kort liggetid, presning af hele klaser, spontan gæring. Gæret og modnet i fransk træ, minimal batonnage. Rig frugt, fersken, nektarin og mango, meget rig og fyldig og alligevel elegant som en Puligny-Montrachet. Vibrerende smag, allehåndepeber med rig, saftig frugt, nødder igen, mineralsk, salt længde. Stilfuld Chardonnay, smukt stram, fremragende definition. 98+/100

Suckling om: Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay

Gorgeous precise aromas of apples, white peaches, some minerals, flint and stone. Subtle mangoes, too. Full-bodied but so intense and driven with a salty undertone and a driving finish. Some white pepper at the end with citrus skin. Focused and intense. Great finish. Better after 2026 but already fantastic. Drink or hold. Screw cap. 98/100

Parker om: Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay

The nose on this 2022 Mate's Vineyard Chardonnay leads with candied bananas, pineapple husk, white peach and a hint of lychee, and the edges of the aromatics are feathered with preserved citrus, brine, curry leaf and apple skins. In the mouth, the wine is powered by supercharged fruit; it is crystalline in its way, an attribute that I have long-since associated with the Chardonnays from Kumeu River. The flavor is sapid and palate-staining, with just enough salt and savory spices in the fruit to make it super complex as well as powerful. It is precisely folded like origami, each crease in service of the overall shape.* A wine that offers much and assumes nothing. 13% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. 96/100

Min vinmager

Kumeu River

Kumeu er en lille by og også en underregion af Aucklands vindyrkningsregion. Regionen blev oprindeligt bosat af kroatiske immigranter, som ofte kom fra vinbondefamilier. Men først og fremmest betyder maori-ordet Kumeu "god frugt". Med andre ord gode betingelser for en vinregion.
