Prophet's Rock Cuvee aux Antipodes Blanc 2022

This ultra-premium Chardonnay is a testament to the seamless collaboration between Central Otago's Paul Pujol and Burgundy’s Francois Millet. Sourced from a singular vineyard dedicated to crafting Grand Cru-level Chardonnay, the 2022 vintage embodies the stunning synergy of New World vibrancy and Old World finesse.

On the nose, expect a sophisticated bouquet of lemon zest, ripe stone fruits, and subtle hints of flint and white flowers, underscored by an elegant mineral thread. The palate delivers an impressive interplay of power and precision. Layers of buttered popcorn, Crème Brûlée, and citrus are balanced by crystalline acidity, lending restraint and impeccable focus. The texture is luxurious, with a creamy mouthfeel that evolves into a long, layered finish, leaving whispers of toasted almond and vanilla.

While exquisitely drinkable in its youth, this Chardonnay’s structure and complexity suggest a remarkable aging potential, promising to reward patient collectors through 2037. Whether enjoyed now for its lush vibrancy or cellared for its future evolution, this is a wine that defines elegance and excellence in New Zealand Chardonnay.
