Liquor.com features the 2017 Dog Point Vineyard Chardonnay in it’s recent round-up of non-sauvignon blanc wines to try from New Zealand. The publication reports that, while sauvignon blanc accounts for almost 73% of the countries’ wine production, the Burgundian duo of pinot noir and chardonnay has begun to develop a stronghold.

Though it’s rich and complex on the palate, mouthwatering acidity lifts and lingers through the finish.”
