Right in the heart of the magical Waihopai Valley, a million miles from anywhere, lies The Ned, one of Marlborough's most famous peaks. The Ned Chardonnay - A fruit driven Chardonnay with white nectarine and loquat aromas elevated by notes of vanilla, cinnamon and lightly toasted brioche. The palate is plush and creamy from the near full malolactic conversion, swathed in warm French oak spice with fine acid tension on the finish.

Typically fresh aromatics of quality Trinity Hill Hawkes Bay Chardonnay are evident including citrus, white flowers and stone fruit. These are complemented on the palate by a creamy richness from aging on lees. Roast hazelnut, almond and hints of gunflint result from the indigenous fermentation in barrel.

Complex and elegant, citrus, nectarine and apricot notes balanced by toasty French oak.

The nose displays fruitful aromas of nectarine and citrus, complemented by delicate floral and savoury notes.

Established in 1994 and named after the landmark Wither Hills range that borders the vineyards, the Wither Hills expert team grow and craft expressive wines New Zealanders know and trust to represent quality. A vivid, stylish and elegant Chardonnay. The distinctive fruit profile of nectarine, fresh grapefruit and minerality is interlaced with the spicy, cashew nut nuances of fine grained French oak. Beautifully intense and expressive.

Just as the noble dragon, this Chardonnay soars with regal allure. Filled with opulent stonefruit and subtle oak, this wine captivates the senses with its soft, creamy texture. An elegant medium bodied wine that inspires reverence with each and every sip.
