In 1986, Jancis Robinson named Kumeu River's Chardonnay among the finest outside Burgundy — a verdict that put this family-owned Auckland winery on the global map. The Coddington vineyard sits on clay-heavy soils in the Kumeu district, a cool maritime subregion where slow ripening preserves natural acidity. Whole-bunch pressing and barrel fermentation with wild yeast, followed by aging on lees in French oak, build the wine's texture. Expect lemon balm, peach, and crème brûlée on the nose, with bright, tart acidity on the palate and a precise, mineral-driven finish.
