Villa Maria McDiarmid Hill is Villa Maria's jewel in the crown Gisborne vineyard. Beautifully positioned on an elevated north facing hillside slope in Patutahi. Capturing the qualities of a spectacular vineyard, McDiarmid Hill Gisborne Chardonnay offers a medley of tropical fruit aromas, fig and smoky grilled nut.

The palate is seamlessly textured, leading to a finish extended by fine acidity. This concentrated wine retains a balance that will appeal for immediate enjoyment but will ultimately benefit from maturation, developing intriguing complexity over the next 5-8 years.
