Based in the Southern Valleys in Marlborough, Fromm was established in the 90s, undergoing organic conversion in 2005, and has rapidly developed a cult reputation for its range of single vineyard reds & whites.
Winemaking is Burgundian, with little more than 3,000 cases produced annually. The vineyards are farmed by hand, grapes hand-picked, whilst in the winery they use wild yeasts, aging in Burgundian oak barrels, bottling with no fining or filtration and minimal sulphur. The resultant wines combine all the elegance, structure and suaveness of Burgundy yet with that signature plushness of NZ fruit, making them very attractive indeed.
The Chardonnay is a stunner, with impressive power and depth, yet there is coolness and restraint here too.
Drinking window: 2023 - 2035
What the critics say:
"The 2021 Clayvin Vineyard is an uncompromising, richly fruited, powerful Chardonnay. It is full-bodied with mouthcoating texture providing structure and honed muscle. Restrained fruit meets grilled nuts and a light twist of salt and pepper. Those attractive reductive notes add seasoning. It is a firm, serious style that need time to unfurl."
