Named in honour of Gwen, the Wife of Tom McDonald, father of Church Road. Gwen explores a more elegant and refined style of winemaking. Gwen Chardonnay is a dry, elegant and refreshing Chardonnay with exceptional length and finesse. On the nose, the wine is reminiscent of citrus and ripe apple with citrus blossom and acacia floral notes. Subtle mineral complexity provides depth and interest, while there is a gentle creamy richness adding a more textural element to the palate.

A core of fruit suggestive of citrus, citrus blossom, white peach, and fresh fig provides the base that carries layers of savoury complexity including toasted hazelnut or cashew, brioche and driftwood smoke. On the palate, notes of roasted hazelnut, nougat and toasted brioche, along with a wisp of woodsmoke and struck flint, combine to bring a serious savoury element to the wine.

Oyster shell aromatics give way to a white peach & pear flavoured profile.

Stylish with power & complexity, mealy with stonefruit, ripe tropical flavours & substantial body.

A nod to the chardonnays of the past with oak, buttery toast aromas & a peach stonefruit flavour profile.

Elegant and effortlessly refined, Cloudy Bay Chardonnay has earned a reputation as the ultimate food wine. Initially reserved, it reveals layers of ripe citrus, apricot and fresh-cut apple with time in the glass, while subtle oak adds notes of vanilla and sugared pastry. A beautifully textured palate and long, fresh finish create a Chardonnay of depth and poise, equally at home alongside fresh seafood, creamy cheeses or chargrilled dishes.

The cool yet sunny environment of Craggy Range's Te Awanga Vineyard near Cape Kidnappers allows the development of intense Chardonnay flavours in the grapes, captured using traditional winemaking techniques seen in the Chablis region of France. The wine's colour transforms into a pale straw hue, instantly evoking the coastal essence of the vineyard. The bouquet carries hints of oyster shells, sea spray, and cashews, further reinforcing its seaside character. A sense of vibrancy and freshness on the palate is complemented by lively acidity that doesn't compromise flavour. The taste of fresh lemon curd and subtle oak adds richness and makes for a delicious and invigorating palate.

Classic Chardonnay aromatics mingle in the glass with a touch of citrus peel, ripe stone fruit and toasty oak. The palate is rich and creamy with grilled peaches, lemons and brioche through the mid palate. Fine, toasted oak and balanced acidity lead to a long and satisfying finish. Enjoy alongside creamy cheeses, BBQ chicken or a porcini risotto.

A pure, bright and youthful citrus driven chardonnay with complex smoky, flint, toast and biscuit notes derived from extended barrel aging on full solids. The palate is focussed and restrained which unfurls on the finish and exposes the intense citrus core with underlying cashew, nutty flavours.

This is classic Chablis at its best - 4th generation winemaker the Race family use virtually no oak (and none at all in the standard cuvée) creating a lean, linear, focused wine that evokes crushed shells, crunchy apple and soft aromatic florals. Match with grilled or poached fish, exotic dishes, sushi and goat's cheeses.

This is a medium bodied and elegant Hawke's Bay Chardonnay. Its flavour profile is a mix of stonefruit, grilled nuts, grapefruit and yeasty nuances. It is both complex and delicious.
