2021 Hawke’s Bay was graced with exceptional warm, dry and stable weather. Our Rivermere vineyard nestled beside the Ngaruroro River on the Gimblett Gravels produced fruit in impeccable condition.

With the first sip, this wine displays an array of stone fruits and baked apples with cinnamon and allspice. These flavours are wrapped around a noble pillar of fruit acid that supports this wine right through to the finish and leaves you wanting more. The natural ferment component contributes to the suppleness of the palate adding complexity as well as enhancing the unwavering finish.

This gorgeous Chardonnay was also one of Sir George’s first wines and was made with the help of winemaker Hugh Crichton.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER:

A name synonymous with leadership in wine, Sir George Fistonich has a history of success but has always operated with an eye on the future.

Sir George founded Čuvar Winery to help preserve the essence of what makes New Zealand fine wine so special, while nurturing an industry culture that is progressive, regenerative and diverse.

It is apt that Čuvar means guardian in Croatian.
