Lively lime and lemon aromas and a flinty, mineral edginess with hints of fig and white peach. The weighty mid-palate also shows peachy ripeness along with crisp acid minerality that gives the wine a refreshing cleansing quality.
This wine is delightful as an aperitif, and even better to drink with fish and shellfish.

James Suckling writes: A delicious chardonnay with a sour lemon, cooked apple and grapefruit undertone. Medium body. Tangy and fruity. Drink now. Screw cap. - James Suckling 92

Erin Larkin writes: The 2023 Village Chardonnay is silky and sleek in the mouth, with lemon flesh, curd, almond meal and brine. The wine has loads of flavor but is restrained and composed; it's a really great entrée to the world of Kumeu River. Eighty percent of the fruit is from the Hawke's Bay vineyard. 12.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drinking 2023 to 2029. - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 90

Rebecca Gibb MW writes: This is a subtle, well-put-together 2023 Chardonnay Village with a flush of bright, mouthwatering acidity that holds the wine together as if a zipper. Restrained fruit meets gentle leesy characters, lending a savory element to the style. It's not a long wine but is done in a zesty aperitif style Chardonnay for drinking in youth on a summer's day. Drinking 2024 to 2028. - Vinous
