Church Road Barrel-Fermented Hawke's Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2022
- Dry style
- Barrel-fermented
- Grapefruit
- Elderflower
On the nose, the wine exhibits fragrant elderflower, grapefruit, mandarin, basil and subtle passionfruit notes. This is complimented by subtle oak bringing and underlying creaminess that supports the fruit and adds another layer of complexity. On the palate the wine is medium weight, finely textured and persistent with a slightly flinty edge. This style of Sauvignon Blanc can age gracefully for up to 10 years or more and matches a wider range of foods than the lighter crisper styles.
Church Road embraces Old World winemaking with one arm and technological advancements with the other. And it all begins with fruit grown in Hawke's Bay. Church Road Winery, renowned for being the first in New Zealand to craft exceptional quality Bordeaux style red wine, pioneered the creation of the Hawke’s Bay wine industry. Church Road wines are crafted using the most exceptional quality fruit from vineyards across Hawke’s Bay, together with traditional winemaking techniques to create highly acclaimed award-winning wines.
Founded in 1897, Church Road combines traditional winemaking techniques with modern thinking and innovation to craft premium, complex wines.
Food Pairing: Pairs well with lighter dishes such as salads and seafood.
