Tasting notes
It displays a complex aromatic range where ripe fruits such as apple, pear and peach are combined, along with fresh citrus notes and touches of subtle tropical fruits. Elegant aromas of French oak are perceived, with nuances of vanilla, butter and a delicate toasted touch, the result of its aging in barrels and fermentation on lees.
It is a medium to full-bodied wine, with a creamy texture and balanced acidity that provides freshness and liveliness. The fruit flavors integrate perfectly with the aging notes, offering a rounded and harmonious experience. The finish is long, persistent and elegant, leaving a feeling of depth and sophistication.

Description
The PEGASUS BAY Chardonnay 2022 is an iconic white wine that reflects the winemaking excellence of the Waipara Valley on New Zealand's South Island. This region, renowned for its stony soils and cool climate, offers ideal conditions for producing high-quality wines that combine intensity, freshness, and complexity.
Sourced from carefully managed estate vineyards, this Chardonnay stands out for its rigorous control in both the vineyard and the winery, where priority is given to an authentic expression of terroir and varietal purity. The grapes are harvested by hand, selected at their optimal ripeness to ensure a balance between acidity and concentration.
At the winery, the wine is made using techniques that include fermentation in high-quality French oak barrels, followed by aging on fine lees, which adds texture and depth without sacrificing the wine's natural freshness. Malolactic fermentation is carefully managed to achieve a balanced profile, avoiding excess and maintaining its characteristic vibrancy.
The result is a full-bodied, structured Chardonnay capable of evolving in the bottle and expressing the complexity of its origin. This wine represents Pegasus Bay's commitment to producing sophisticated, long-lived wines that showcase the perfect balance of fruit, minerality, and a delicate touch of oak.
