The wine

This Archive Release of Greywacke's Marlborough Chardonnay reveals the wine's ageing potential, a mature example from the 2016 vintage. Barrel-fermented and complex, it is a treat for lovers of aged Chardonnay.

Baked apple, citrus, hazelnut, honey and toast fill a deep, evolved nose. The palate is rich yet fresh, with stone fruit, fine acidity and a long, mineral finish.

Superb with roast chicken, rich fish and hard cheese. Serve lightly chilled.

View all Greywacke wines

Greywacke is the acclaimed Marlborough estate of Kevin Judd, the founding winemaker of Cloudy Bay and one of New Zealand's most respected names. Named for the region's river stones, it crafts benchmark Sauvignon Blanc and beyond. The wines are among Marlborough's very best.

The grapes come from mature vineyards across the Wairau and Southern Valleys, farmed with care and picked at optimal ripeness. Cool nights and stony soils give the wines their vivid fruit and freshness. Judd's decades of experience show in every bottle.

The range runs from the classic, vibrant Sauvignon Blanc to the wild-fermented, barrel-aged Wild Sauvignon, alongside fine Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir. Older Archive Release vintages show how beautifully the wines age. Each is pure, textured and expressive.

Greywacke's wines combine Marlborough's signature freshness with real depth and craft. They are elegant, food-friendly and consistently outstanding. A benchmark of New Zealand wine.
