One of the flagship wines from one of Hawke’s Bay’s flagship producers! It’s amazing what winning “Best Chardonnay in the World” can do for your reputation – which is what these guys did back at 1997’s International Wine Challenge in London. They’ve never looked back since.

Produced from premium fruit in the world famous (see above!) Gimblett Gravels sub region in Hawke’s Bay.

The Trinity winemaking crew put their back into it when it comes to their beloved black label Chardy. Hand harvested fruit, fermented with indigenous yeasts in 500 litre French oak puncheons for complexity and texture, malo-lactic fermentation for further richness, eleven months in oak then another four months on lees. No corners cut here!

Awarded a high 93/100 score by The Real Review’s Bob Campbell who said “Rich, intense, creamy-textured wine with luscious peach, ripe nectarine, vanilla and spicy oak flavours. A real crowd-pleaser that is easy to appreciate. From a top vintage. “

A rich, complex and creamy style sure to impress any Chardonnay lover.
