Tohu Whenua Awa Single Vineyard Chardonnay 2020

Complex irresistible wine with seamless balance, refinement and length.

Description

Crafted from hand-harvested fruit grown on Marlborough’s Awa block, this small-batch Chardonnay is a study in elegance and texture. Fermented in large-format French oak using wild yeasts, it delivers ripe stonefruit and flinty complexity with finely integrated oak and bright acidity. With just 1800 bottles produced, it’s a refined, expressive wine that speaks clearly of place and vintage.
