Decibel Giunta Chardonnay 2024
Case Buys Only | 6 x 750ml
Decibel Giunta Chardonnay is a fresh, fruit-forward Hawke's Bay Chardonnay with ripe peach, melon and tropical fruit balanced by lively citrus acidity. It offers generous flavour and a smooth, rounded feel without the weight or heavy oak of a richer Chardonnay style. Smoky spice adds interest through the palate, while a dry, persistent finish keeps the wine bright and easy to return to. Approachable but far from plain, it is a versatile match for roast chicken, grilled fish, creamy pasta, soft cheeses or a sunny afternoon with something fresh from the sea.
What the winery says:
The wine shows juicy peach and melon flavours lifted by a vibrant citrus note. Its crisp texture and fruit-forward character give the palate freshness and balance, capturing the warmth and ripeness of Hawke's Bay without losing its lively, refreshing feel. The finished wine contains 12.5% alcohol.
What the experts say:
David Walker Bell, WineFolio, 93/100 (2024 Vintage)
"A smoky incense and spice fills the nose as you then travel through the palate, to a dry finish with fine persistence."
