The 2025 Nanny Goat Vineyard Chardonnay is a refined Central Otago Chardonnay that combines bright fruit purity with the region’s hallmark freshness and mineral character. The nose is expressive and elegant, revealing aromas of white peach, nectarine and citrus blossom, alongside subtle notes of toasted almond, flint and gentle oak spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a finely textured mouthfeel and vibrant natural acidity. Flavours of stone fruit, lemon curd and grapefruit are layered with hints of roasted nuts and mineral complexity, creating a wine that is both focused and beautifully balanced. The finish is long and precise, with lingering citrus and savoury notes adding depth and character.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers who appreciate modern cool-climate Chardonnay with freshness, texture and restraint. Its balance of fruit and minerality makes it a natural match for grilled seafood, roast chicken, pan-seared scallops or creamy mushroom dishes. Drinking beautifully now, it will continue to develop added complexity over the next 4–7 years.
