A ripe and citrus driven Chardonnay. Characteristic biscuit and oatmeal secondary characters and mild flinty notes contrast and compliment the fruit. Fresh, vibrant and acidic. A modest amount of new oak delivering subtle char and phenolic structure to the wine. An intensely flavoured yet youthful and lively vintage for Dog Point Chardonnay.

Food match: Scallops, white fish and BBQ Pork.

Dog Point

Ivan and Margaret Sutherland were among the earliest Marlborough wine industry pioneers who planted grapes in Marlborough in the late 1970s. Along with James & Wendy Healy they returned to a more 'hands-on' approach launching the Dog Point label in 2004. Today, with succession plans in place, the next generation of the Sutherland family are now running the day-to-day operations. The property is sensitively planted with Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grown under organic principles.
