Winemaker and co-founder Rob Cameron has a colourful winemaking background – learning his craft in unique destinations such as Cyprus, Bulgaria and Hungary before moving on to France, Spain and Italy. For him, the Invivo range is all about taking some of the elegance from the old world and putting that style into amazing grapes, all the while offering wines that are fun and a bit unique.
The Gisborne Chardonnay bursts with ripe peach and toasty oak aromas, with touches of vanilla in the background. On the palate, it's full-bodied and creamy, with bright citrus and melon flavours balanced by fresh acidity. Fermented in French oak barriques (60% new) and aged on lees for six months, it culminates with lovely depth and texture.
Enhance the wine's texture by drinking alongside cream-based soups and sauce-based fare on a sunny day.
It's finely scented on the nose, showing apricot, fig, nougat and oatmeal nuances, leading to a silky palate that's juicy and beautifully rounded. Supple and succulent, finishing lingering and elegant. At its best: now to 2027.
