SunLive Competition

 Te Whare Ra is one of the oldest vineyards in Marlborough, established in 1979. Winemakers Anna and Jason Flowerday take a hands-on approach in both the vineyard and the winery.

Interviews with Anna are always an education. Anna is totally passionate, which really shows through in everything she says and does and most importantly, this passion is reflected in their wines.

The 2010 Chardonnay has nice savory smoky characteristics. The subtle toasty oakiness in the background follow on to vibrant, concentrated flavours of fresh peach, nectarine and ripe citrus, which are balanced by a finely structured palate with a creamy texture. 

Breathe in aromas of white peach, ripe fig and melon, which are complemented by subtle oak-derived spice. Well integrated toasty oak and a lingering, spicy persistence complete this wine. Enjoy!
