Mount Riley 17 Valley Marlborough Chardonnay (2014)

The 2014 vintage (5*) is very refined. Estate-grown at three sites, and fermented and matured in French oak barriques (30 per cent new), it is an immaculate wine, mouthfilling and rich, with concentrated, peachy, citrusy flavours, finely balanced oak, and a long, finely textured finish. Best drinking 2018+.
