Dunnolly Chardonnay Reserve 2017
About the wine
Estate-grown, barrel-aged Chardonnay - from a legendary family
- This is Reserve Chardonnay, "Kiwi-style" – round and gentle with a pop of refined citrus. Nicky made sure it got all the luxury treatments – barrel-aging included!
- ...Fun fact: It's made by your favorite New Zealand winemaking family – Nicky and Peter Parish (AKA "Sis" and "Dad" to your Napa winemaker, Matt).
- With your support, they're producing fine, small-batch wines from their home estate – and loving every minute of it. "There is a lot of love that goes into making this barrel-aged wine," says Nicky. "We want our lovely Angel supporters to get the best wine possible!"
Best before
I would cellar for at least six months after release to really enjoy these beautiful flavors but can be enjoyed once received.
Serving advice
Please serve lightly chilled.This wine is ready to be enjoyed with great company.
Food match
Normally, I would suggest any of our local Kiwi seafood (scallops in particular) but this wine also is stunning with butterflied BBQed chicken, a leafy green salad and minted new seasoned potatoes.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Nicky Parish
- Meet Nicky and Peter... Nicky is the winemaker and Peter is the grower. They are father and daughter – and combined, they have over 50 years of experience in the wine industry.
- Making wine from the Waipara Valley, situated in North Canterbury on the South Island of NZ. Nicky's winemaking passions are crisp whites and Pinot Noir.
- For 10 years they grew grapes for the best producers in New Zealand (like Pegasus Bay), but a few years ago, they put their own name on the grapes when the vines hit their peak. Now Angels are helping Nicky and Peter continue their Dunnolly dream!
