2023 Mount Edward Chardonnay, Central Otago

A wine with delicate fruit flavours, lightness, some savoury complexity, nuttiness & a touch of vanilla. A delicate wine yet with with a soft palate of pith like mineral texture, all underpinned by fine acidity.
Matured for just under a year on lees prior to bottling.
Certified organic, a crafted blend of Morrison Vineyard & Muirkirk Vineyard fruit.
Mount Edward
Established in 1997 by Central Otago pioneer Alan Brady—also the founder of Gibbston Valley Wines—the winery began as a hands-on project focused on premium Pinot Noir and Riesling. Current owners John Buchanan and winemaker Duncan Forsyth took over in 2004, expanding into diverse varieties while upholding Brady’s ethos of minimal intervention and wild yeast fermentation.
Five BioGro-certified estate vineyards span Gibbston and Pisa sub-regions and soils range from glacial gravels to alluvial fans, yielding elegant, mid-weight style wines with fine tannins.
