Description
This wine delivers aromas of roasted nuts, subtle creaminess and a hint of smoky struck flint. The palate is powerful yet fresh and restrained with fine texture, great length and balanced fresh acidity.
Hand-harvested to ensure only the best fruit selection, this Chardonnay was gentle whole-bunched pressed and wild fermented in French oak.
Church Road’s label celebrating the life of wine legend Tom McDonald – in some circles nicknamed the “Father of red wine in New Zealand”.
Food Pairing: Seafood, poultry and light game match particularly well when there is an element of creaminess in the dish.

Excellent value for a top class Chardonnay

Outstanding fruity Chardonnay with a lot of depth "en bouche" and, at this price, it's a no-brainer for those who like their Chardonnay with some whiskers on it without paying a fortune.
