Daylight Wine & Spirits The Marlborist Chardonnay is a vibrant, finely crafted expression of Marlborough ’s cool‑climate terroir. Sourced from select hillside and river‑valley parcels, the fruit benefits from long sunshine hours, crisp nights and mineral‑rich soils that naturally enhance freshness and aromatic clarity. Hand‑picked and whole‑bunch pressed, the juice ferments with a mix of wild and cultured yeasts before ageing in French oak and stainless steel, creating a Chardonnay that balances purity with subtle complexity. Why You’ll Love It This is modern Marlborough Chardonnay at its best which is bright, textural and beautifully poised. The Marlborist captures the region’s signature energy while offering layers of refinement, making it ideal for those who enjoy Chardonnay with both freshness and depth. Meet the Producer Daylight Wine & Spirits is a small, quality‑focused producer dedicated to showcasing the character of New Zealand ’s most expressive vineyard sites. Working closely with growers who prioritise sustainable farming, they craft wines that highlight place, precision and purity. Production Grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, then gently whole‑bunch pressed to preserve delicacy. Fermentation takes place in a combination of French oak barrels and stainless‑steel tanks, allowing both texture and brightness to develop. Lees ageing adds subtle richness while maintaining a clean, mineral‑driven profile. Tasting Notes Aromas of white peach, citrus zest and nectarine mingle with hints of toasted almond and delicate spice. The palate is fresh and finely textured, offering stone fruit, lemon curd and a touch of flint. A lively line of acidity carries the wine to a long, elegant, gently creamy finish. Perfect Pairings Excellent with roast chicken, grilled prawns, creamy pasta, seared fish, risotto or soft cheeses. Its balance of richness and freshness makes it versatile across a wide range of dishes. Grape Variety 100% Chardonnay
