Saint Clair Pioneer Block 11 Cell  Block Chardonnay 2014 (Marlborough)

Winemakers Matt Thomson and Hamish Clark source some terrific fruit from the Cell Block (so named because the vineyard is owned by an ex-cop). This expression melds tangy salinity with some creamy vanillin oak notes, while the texture is soft and caressing. It’s an engaging, approachable style, perfect for pork belly.
