Q Wine Waitaki Valley Chardonnay 2021"Bright, pale straw yellow colour even throughout. The nose is softly concentrated and elegant, penetrating aromas of ripe stonefruit, citrus entwined with lifted spice and a subtle layer of oak. Medium bodied, aromas of ripe apricot, grapefruit have a concentrated core, citrus zest followed by delicate white spice. The acidity is vibrant and fluid with precision, carrying the fruit and spice to linearity; fine textured phenolics added oak presence

"Bright, pale straw yellow colour even throughout. The nose is softly concentrated and elegant, penetrating aromas of ripe stonefruit, citrus entwined with lifted spice and a subtle layer of oak. Medium-bodied, aromas of ripe apricot, grapefruit have a concentrated core, citrus zest followed by delicate white spice. The acidity is vibrant and fluid with precision, carrying the fruit and spice to linearity; fine-textured phenolics added oak presence and mouthfeel. Well-balanced oak elements adorn this elegant Chardonnay with ripe fruit and a taut acid precision. Match with kingfish and pork over the next 5+ years. Handpicked, whole bunch pressed, barrel-fermented to 14.5% alc, aged 9 months in 500L French Oak Puncheons, 25% new, 75% 3-year-old. 180 cases produced" Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Reviews, Apr 2022

"Showing the benefit of some nutty/cashew bottle development but still quite youthful with hints of green apple and oyster shell characters. Perhaps lacking the concentration of some earlier vintages, it remains an appealing wine" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, The Real Review, May 2024

The grapes have been handpicked and whole bunch pressed before barrel fermentation. Generous and textural palate combining minerality and richness with long lasting aromas of white flowers, bread crumb and complex spices – fresh ginger, white pepper and vanilla bean.

A one in eighty year drought for the Waitaki saw creeks dry and pastures crack early in Spring of 2020. Leaving the vineyard crew racing to turn on irrigation not used in 15 years. With the dry conditions the risk of frost increased and with the influence of the October full moon our Q WINE vineyard took some damage.

Flowering proved to be successful for our Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, however there were some cooler conditions during the Chardonnay flowering period which did reduce our Chardonnay crop size.

The drought breaker come with a massive rain event in early January setting up a beautiful healthy canopy across the whole vineyard and great fruit. The race towards harvest was aided by dry and hot ripening conditions all the way to one of Waitaki’s earliest and best vintages.

The 2026 Old Farmer's Almanac Planner
Format: Book Supplement
I bought this for myself as I buy the Old Farmer's Almanac Engagement Calendar every year. And, I keep them - I have an assortment of Engagement Calendars in a plastic covered box in our basement going back to 1975! I like the Old Farmer's Almanac Engagement Calendar because there is extra room at the bottom of the pages to write on.
