About this wine
TONY BISH Golden Egg Chardonnay, Hawkes Bay
The Tony Bish Golden Egg Chardonnay from Hawke’s Bay is a standout expression of innovative winemaking and pure regional character. Crafted from hand-picked Mendoza Chardonnay grapes, this wine is fermented in large, hand-made concrete eggs that create natural convection currents, keeping the wine in continuous contact with lees to enhance texture and complexity. The result is a beautifully balanced Chardonnay with a pale straw color and green highlights, offering lifted aromas of white flowers, lime blossom, and honeydew melon, complemented by a distinctive flinty, dry stone minerality. On the palate, it is energetic and silky, with juicy notes of pink grapefruit and honeydew melon, finishing with a saline mineral quality and fresh, textured acidity. This elegant, textural wine is reminiscent of a Premier Cru Chablis, making it a refined choice for those seeking a vibrant, mineral-driven Chardonnay with excellent aging potential of 5 to 6 years. Ideal with seafood, poultry, and creamy cheeses, the Golden Egg is a must-have for discerning collectors and lovers of fine Chardonnay.

Expert Review
Cameron Douglas MS
A fascinating and complex wine with a bouquet that is slow at first to open up then suddenly a rush of aromas that embrace ripe white fleshed fruits, sweet grapefruit, and gentle mineral complexities. A poised and youthful wine touches the palate, first reflecting flavours from the bouquet then showcasing a mineral and sense of place layer. Persistent, taut and textured remains the theme with core flavours from fruits, lees and a fine chalky mouthfeel. Well made, complex and ready to drink from early 2025 through 2030.
