Kumeu River Chardonnay Mate`s Vineyard

Media Reviews

Erin Larkin

The 2025 Mate`s Vineyard Chardonnay is powerful and nutty, with ripe orchard fruit. There are also notes of white pepper, pressed linen, green apple, chamomile and salted cashews. The palate is predictably powerful and unbelievably concentrated, with depth and length that feels interminable. This is an exceptional release of Mate`s, one you should make every effort to taste. These wines age so well; don`t acquire them with the expectation that they must be consumed soon. They have a decades-long future ahead, if only you have the patience. 13.7% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. 97 points
