Craighall Vineyard is located directly opposite the main Ata Rangi home block on Puruatanga Road. The 2 hectares of Mendoza clone Chardonnay, with its typical small berry ‘hen and chicken’ fruit set, is always low yielding but invariably has good concentration as a result. Take a sip, close your eyes and think of grilled stone fruits: ripe peaches and white nectarines, with a delicate sprinkling of ginger and cinnamon! There’s a mealy, brazil nut note too. This is lovely integrated wine with real complexity, still-youthful acidity, and a long, crystalline finish.
