Matthew Jukes, 9/09/24, Score: 17.5/20
Drawn from fruit from six different sites in the Kumeu region and using a high proportion of one and two-year-old oak barrels, this is the real deal, and it sings of the time-honoured Kumeu River style. Forward drinking and less fleshy than 2022, this is a superb, clean, racy wine, and it will certainly run for a good three or four years. This is a super wine that is light, airy and teasingly refreshing.

JS5, 5/5/24, Score: 91
Compared to the Village chardonnay, there's a touch of extra concentration here. Barely ripe white nectarine, a little guava and red apple alongside the merest hint of flint. There is a strong spine of acid, but this provides structure for the fruit. A faint note of creamy malo adds another layer. Drink from now - 2028.
