{"product_id":"2023-dog-point-chardonnay","title":"2023 Dog Point Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eDog Point is consistently one of Marlborough’s most dialled-in estates. Their Chardonnay is a modern classic that brilliantly walks the line between power and precision, packed with their trademark flinty, struck-match funk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced from their home vineyard with vines dating back to 1984, the winemaking here is completely unhurried. The fruit (a mix of Mendoza and B95 clones) is hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed, wild-fermented, and rested on full solids for 18 months in mostly older French oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis release is a tightly coiled, mouth-filling wine. It opens with smoke and toast before delivering a driving core of pure citrus, all pulled together by a signature saline edge. It’s magic right now with roast chook or scallops, but it absolutely has the bones to age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The 2023 Chardonnay is incredibly tightly coiled and mineral on the nose, with white flowers, crushed shells, wet chalk and white pepper.
