Gunn Estate produce two ranges of wines. Their white label, where they source grapes from around NZ and Australia, as well as their Reserve range, which is mostly single varietal bottlings made with grapes from either the Hawkes Bay or Marlborough. The grapes for their 2020 Chardonnay Reserve came from the Hawkes Bay, picked after a warm and dry summer which allowed the berries to fully ripen. The wine has great fruit depth, body and a natural acidity that cuts through on the finish. There was a little bit of oak treatment as well as lees stirring during winemaking which has given it great texture and a medium body. This is drinking great now and would be a great winter white if you’re that way inclined. Enjoy with a roast chicken, or creamy, cheesy pasta.
The Hawke’s Bay 2020 growing season was a little warmer than average and quite a bit drier, with some fantastic sunshine late in the summer. Disease pressure was non-existent, and the fruit was in perfect condition across all varietals. This allowed us to pick the grapes when they were showing good natural acidity relative to their sugar and flavour ripeness. Perfect for all our wine styles.
