Goedhuis, August 2021
Bright red fruits unfurl from the glass, this is so inviting and pretty. Cranberry, redcurrants, strawberry, raspberry and rose. You could easily think this was from Burgundy. Light and nimble, it dances across the palate thanks to crunchy red summer fruits, hints of pinot spice and youthful joy. This has a jubilant and delicious simplicity to it and a cool climate elegance. Tantalising and fresh, its aromatic fruit and crisp acidity make it utterly irresistible to drink now. For the money this is outstanding and highly recommended.
Producer
Kumeu River
Kumeu River is one of the longest established and most recognised producers in New Zealand. Founded in 1944 by Mick Brajkovich, a Croatian immigrant, the estate was one of the early pioneers in Auckland that helped establish the country as an excellent wine producing area. Today, second and third generations work the 30 hectares of vines planted on clay and limestone soils. Winemaker Michael Brajkovich, who was also New Zealand’s first Master of Wine, harvests all the grapes by hand and uses traditional Burgundian methods such as barrel fermentation. Kumeu River's Chardonnays have won many accolades the world over. From their entry level Chardonnay to their single vineyard wines, which have been mistaken by top critics for some very smart Meursaults, Chassagnes and Pulignys, they represent fantastic value for money.
