About Chardonnay

Chardonnay, or Chard for short, is the world's most popular white grape. Cool climates and stainless steel give crisp citrus and green apple, while warmer regions and oak barrels add peach, butter, vanilla and toast.

Buttery Chardonnay

Love a big, buttery Chardonnay? Look for wines aged in oak with malolactic fermentation, such as Church Road McDonald Series, Bogle and many Californian and Hawke's Bay styles. For a crisper style, choose unoaked Chardonnay or Chablis.

New Zealand Chardonnay

Hawke's Bay and Kumeu River make some of New Zealand's finest Chardonnay. Explore Church Road, Esk Valley, Trinity Hill, Elephant Hill, Matawhero from Gisborne and Main Divide from Waipara.
