Named in honour of Gwen, the Wife of Tom McDonald, father of Church Road. Gwen explores a more elegant and refined style of winemaking. Gwen Pinot Gris is a dry, fresh and mineral driven wine with exceptional length and finesse on the palate. On the nose, the wine is reminiscent of ripe autumn orchard fruit, lifted by notes of honeysuckle with a savoury complexity and subtle minerality providing depth and interest. Match with a range of fresh salads, seafood, poultry and cold cuts.

The McDonald Series wines are an expression of both their fruit and the vision of their namesake winemaker. The finest free run juice was barrel fermented in predominantly older French oak to produce this finely textured, elegant Chardonnay. Vibrant citrus and stonefruit flavours are overlaid with subtle creamy oak and complexities of toasted hazelnut and brioche.

Pear drop and nectarine aromas are heightened by lifted ginger spice, rose and honeysuckle notes, while the palate is rich and long with a medium dry finish.

Elegant and effortlessly refined, Cloudy Bay Chardonnay has earned a reputation as the ultimate food wine. Initially reserved, it reveals layers of ripe citrus, apricot and fresh-cut apple with time in the glass, while subtle oak adds notes of vanilla and sugared pastry. A beautifully textured palate and long, fresh finish create a Chardonnay of depth and poise, equally at home alongside fresh seafood, creamy cheeses or chargrilled dishes.
