Fab creamy and soft new bubbly from northern Wairarapa winery, Matahiwi Estate, which uses Hawke's Bay Chardonnay grapes. Sparkling wines that are made entirely from Chardonnay are known as Blanc de Blanc; French for white of white.
This wine is made in the mould of a good champagne, using Chardonnay grapes which are grown in Hawke's Bay's Dartmoor Valley. The wine gains its richness from lees ageing, which enhances creaminess and yeasty aromatics. It's a deliciously lemon citrusy wine with depth, complexity and character - outstanding value at the price.
