Description
The de Mariscos descended from William de Marisco (approximately 1,100 AD), who was said to be one of the 35 illegitimate children of Kind Henry the First – thereby marking him, The King’s Bastard.
Selected vineyard sites across Marlborough, including Leefield Station, The Slopes & Fairleigh Estate vineyards.
100% Chardonnay
Rich aromas of ripe peach, apricot and grapefruit are intertwined with a nutty, spicy oak character. The lush palate invokes stone fruit flavors supported with an opulent texture derived from barrel componentry. The wine finishes deliciously dry with bright citrus acicity.
We recommend imbibing this wine with something special.
