Cool, crisp, refreshing but apart from a slightly clean initial taste, I don't see it being that spectacular and pretty much run of the mill Chardonnay. Its ok but fairly standard.

Nice clean temperate climate Chardonnay with muted toasted oak and good apple-pear flavor notes. Decent quality for the price and improving.

Bright and zingy, a lively mouthful of lime, lime peel, green apple and a whiff of herbs as the tart finish sails on and on. Drink now. 14,100 cases imported.

Winemaker's Notes:
The philosophy of Oyster Bay is to produce fi ne, distinctively regional wines that are elegant and assertive with glorious fruit fl avours. Oyster Bay Marlborough Chardonnay truly captures the character of Marlborough with pure, incisive, ripe fruit fl avours. A combination of barrel and tank fermentation and the stirring of yeast lees achieves maximum softness, integration and texture. To retain all the natural assertiveness and fl avour, no malolactic fermentation takes place. Clonal infl uences in the vineyard have been very important, providing smaller berries and enhanced fl avour intensity. The result of all of this is delicious Oyster Bay Marlborough Chardonnay with concentrated aromas and fl avours of ripe citrus and stonefruit, balanced with subtle oak, and a creamy texture to fi nish. A sublime expression of fruit purity from Marlborough’s unique cool climate and soils.
Bright citrus with hints of stonefruit, stunning fruit concentration accentuated with a creamy texture and sublime zesty lime undertones.
