Trophy & Triple Gold winning Marlborough Chardonnay including Gold and 95/100 at the most prestigious wine show on the planet – the Decanter World Wine Awards in London!
Made by Saint Clair in Marlborough and part of their iconic Pioneer Block series – a range of small parcel wines from specific vineyard sites dotted across Marlborough. This is the Pioneer Block 10 Twin Hills Chardonnay named after the vineyard there in the Omaka sub region sitting between two hills.
As well as Trophy for Champion Chardonnay at the National Wine Awards of Aotearoa NZ the Decanter award is definitely a bit special. From over 18,000 wines entered only 643 won Gold (a little over 3%) and of those only 15 Kiwi wines can boast a Gold at the DWWA.
The judges in London said “The epitome of poise and elegance with ample stony mineral notes and a flourish of honeyed nuts. Intense and structured with a chalky acid crunch and energising length.”
A seriously good Marlborough Chardonnay and the Saint Clair crew highly recommend pairing it with seared chicken breast with a pine nut salad.
