Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"The Reed Vineyard Chardonnay is an incredibly textured, savoury wine. It summons a tightly-coiled white peach, grapefruit and toasted hazelnut aroma profile, which is complemented by complex flint and silex nuances. Its vividly sketched acidity allows it to carry the powerful but savoury oak in a defined yet impressive manner. This is a wine for drinking now for its crystalline purity, or cellaring and reaping the benefits of tertiary development in many years to come."


5 Stars, 95/100 & Top Rated Marlborough 2022 Chardonnay, Bob Campbell MW, The Real Review, November 2023 (2022 Vintage)
"Weighty, mouth-filling chardonnay with grapefruit, saline/oyster shell, lime zest, nutty yeast lees aromas and a suggestion of sizzled butter. Great without the complication of food but even better with my hot-smoked salmon."


Rated Outstanding & 95/100 Cameron Douglas MS, October 2023 (2022 Vintage) 
"An excellent example of Chardonnay from the Blank Canvas team with aromas and flavours of white fleshed stone fruits and a citrus seam woven through the core. Taut and dry, youthful and textured with a lovely palate squeeze and urgency. Flavours expand on the palate as the wine opens out and gets closer to ambient with baking spices and a light reductive flinty highlight. Oak frames the fruit and is judicious in its level and impact. Generous weight, gentle warming alcohol, plenty of intensity, length and power. A wine best enjoyed from mid to late 2024 through 2030+."


Reviews for the 2021 vintage below…


5 Stars Michael Cooper (2021 Vintage)
"The finely scented 2021 vintage was hand-picked in the Waihopai Valley, fermented and matured for 11 months in French oak puncheons, and bottled unfined and unfiltered. Still extremely youthful, it has concentrated, peachy flavours, crisp and finely poised, and a rich, persistent finish. Best drinking mid-2024+."


94/100 James Suckling, September 2022 (2022 Vintage)
''This has intense aromas of Meyer lemons, toasted bread, dried pineapples, roasted apples and salted popcorn. The concentration is fantastic, with persistent, tangy layers of fruit and salty, toasty undertones. Deliciously long. Sustainable."


17/20 Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, February 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Strong struck-match aroma. Lovely precise, clean palate and definitely flinty ('because we don't stir'). Bone-dry finish and lots of fruit on mid palate. A wine you'd love or loathe. I love it."
