History
Brent Marris, Marlborough born and raised, spent years as a youngster exploring the landscape of his home region. He put that exploration to good use when, in 2003, he started his search for a vineyard property. The site he chose was 268ha of vineyards on the banks of the Waihopai River, on the southern side of the Wairau Valley. From here, Brent started Marisco Vineyards and achieved international success with his wines, most notably with his flagship brand “The Ned”.
Regional Information
New Zealand's flagship wine region which, in combination with Sauvignon Blanc, put the country on the international wine stage. Much more than just Sauvignon though, Marlborough offers increasing depth in both varieties and terroir.
Current Vintage
2018
Vinification Details
With one of the warmest starts to a growing season since records began, all of the industry talk was of a super early, highly condensed harvest. Consistently
above average temperatures through September, October and November combined with typical spring rainfall meant an excellent start to the season, with
a near perfect bud burst and optimum growing conditions for strong canopy development.

Excellent full on Chardonnay

Very impressed with this. Huge, complex, textured. Hints a powerful Burgundy - almost Montrachet like. On offer, it's a steal! Judging by other reviews, it seems to be a bit Marmite-y. But it compares well to other Marlborough chardonnays (which are similarly love/hate, like the Escarpment's). I'm back for more (again, and again).

Good chardonnay

Surprised by some of the reviews. I do like chardonnay and this is a very quaffable one. Have only bought it when on special. Not sure I'd pay £16 though hence the drop of one star - there's other better value chardonnays out there.

I dont usually like Chardonnay

Having had some horrendous Chardonnay induced hangovers, my palate for it was destroyed for years. But this is exquisite. We drank it with roast chicken, fennel and potatoes and it was amazing. Just come back to tell you all and add 6 bottles at half price.

Very Chardonnay

This is good if you like Chardonnay a lot - it lands square in the taste window of rich, full-bodied fruity chardonnay. It's maybe a little simple in profile, but very good value at the offer price.

oaky chardonnay

I liked this for a change as did the guests i served it to. Usually a Sauvignon drinker this was quite different but enjoyable. I would buy this again
