Le Beaux Cailloux, meaning The Beautiful Gravels, in reference to the Gimblett Gravels Region of The Hawkes Bay where the fruit for this wine is grown.
It is the top tier Chardonnay from the team at Craggy Range - and it delivers, with all the class you would expect.
It is the soils of the Gimblett Gravels Vineyard that impart a finely textured mineral quality into the finished wine, unique to Chardonnay produced from this region. Finely flavoured, complex, taut.
Pale straw colour. Aromatic charm aplenty with subtle notes of ripe peach, honey roasted nuts and lemon blossom. Lithe and long across the palate. Mid palate fruit richness is tempered by fine acidity and a lovely textural seam. Finishes dry and delicious.
