Thank you, Lisa! I enjoyed the opportunity and will definitely have to try that trick at a Burg tasting…

Thanks again for attending the tasting. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Throw your friends for a loop some time and brown bag a few Kumeu River Chardonnays in a White Burgundy tasting.

The Village and Estate are the more reasonably priced at $18 and $36 accordintg to their website… haven’t followed up with Hinton’s yet to see what they will list these for when they get them in. The single vineyards are $43 – 50

I did not get a lot of overbearing oakyness in any of these wines… regardless of change in oak regimen.

I like the sound of the Coddington’s apricot and peach, but wanted to know if they oak is overbearing or not since you said they use more and stronger oak?

What are the price ranges?
