Te Mata Estate Elston Chardonnay offers a beautifully refined expression of Hawke’s Bay terroir. On the nose, it presents aromas of ripe stone fruits—particularly white peach and nectarine—layered with subtle notes of toasted almonds and struck flint. The palate is rich and creamy yet taut, showcasing elegant oak integration and vibrant citrus acidity that carries through to a long, mineral-driven finish. Hints of brioche and spice add complexity, making this a sophisticated and age-worthy Chardonnay.
