The Jones family are original pioneers of Marlborough, with William Jones founding the Starborough homestead and sheep station in 1865. Four generations later the original Starborough homestead block in the Awatere valley continues to thrive and is now producing world class wine. Aged in full oak barrels, this is a full and concentrated Chardonnay with aromas of ripe citrus, yellow stone fruits, white floral, hazelnut and toasty oak. The textures are fine and the complex flavours of vibrant stone fruits that are mouth filing with a strong core that carries to a full, citrus and nutty finish with lemon-curd and toasty oak giving this Chardonnay a creamy and delicious finish.
