This wine is produced from a vineyard owned by Tim and Angela Coddington, whose grapes have contributed to the blend of Kumeu River Estate Chardonnay since 1998. It is a vineyard that produces very rich and unctuous Chardonnay that was long believed could make an excellent single vineyard wine. In 2006, Kumeu River decided to give Coddington single vineyard status to reflect this vineyard’s unique character.
