The 2025 Maude Chardonnay is a cool-climate Central Otago Chardonnay from New Zealand, with a fresh and finely textured style. The nose shows white peach, nectarine and citrus with subtle floral, savoury and gentle oak notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied and balanced, with ripe stone fruit and citrus supported by bright acidity and a softly creamy texture. Restrained oak adds depth while maintaining freshness, leading to a clean and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for those who enjoy cool-climate New Zealand Chardonnay with fresh fruit, balanced texture and subtle oak. Ideal with grilled seafood, roast chicken, salmon, creamy pasta or mushroom dishes.
