The winery is located in Hawke’s Bay, but the label doesn’t make clear the fruit sourcing for this wine, which is a bit of an odd bird. Some sour lime and green vegetable notes vie with honey on the palate, ending on a heavy note. Probably past its “best by...” date. 1 Note

Gunn Estate's 2009 is on the green side of things, offering hints of asparagus on the nose before balancing those out nicely with white grapefruit flavors. Despite the herbal overtones, it actually seems richly weighty on the palate before turning citrusy on the finish. 1 Note

This oak-free Chardonnay starts off with somewhat floral and spicy aromas, then delivers an assertive mouthful of fruit cocktail-like flavors. It’s medium-bodied, just right as an apéritif or alongside simply grilled fish or chicken. 1 Note

This is an attractively ripe Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, with bold aromas and flavors of gooseberries and nectarine, rounded out even further by touches of fig. It’s medium-bodied and nicely balanced, combining grapefruit and mineral notes on the long finish. 1 Note

The black-cherry flavors that carry this wine seems almost overripe and a bit pruny, but work well in combination with the chocolate and tea shadings that persist into the long, tart finish. 1 Note

Ohiti is a subregion of Hawkes Bay, one of New Zealand’s warmer wine-growing areas, but this Chardonnay is tight and tart. Orange and lime, also tart pear flavors dominate. Needs time, but will the flavors ever truly unfurl? 1 Note
