However, the collection is a diverse selection of Hawke\u2019s Bay Chardonnay, and fulfills the job of highlighting the quality of production in the region. This collection of wines will find its way onto the desks of important critics worldwide &#8211; where the region is probably known for a ripe fruit-forward style.

Seamless, with a lengthy finale. <b>94pts<\/b><\/p><p><b>Church Road Grand Reserve Chardonnay 2022<\/b><\/p><p>Scented with lemon peel, hazelnut, peach, baking spice, popcorn and pear &#8211; and where the struck match reductivity is tempered by the rich fruit and lift of honeysuckle florals. Full-bodied, with a slice of toasty, spicy oak contrasted to crisp acidity giving good length to the palate. Packed with energy and verve, there\u2019s plenty of concentration &#8211; and plenty to like &#8211; with a complex, bold layering of elements and flavours. <b>94pts<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-658ca02 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"658ca02\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-33afe96\" data-id=\"33afe96\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f68f51e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f68f51e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"735\" height=\"456\" src=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22-1024x635.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-11132\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22-1024x635.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22-300x186.jpg 300w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22-768x476.jpg 768w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22-1536x952.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22-348x215.jpg 348w, https:\/\/winefolio.co.nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Church-Rd-GR-Chardy-22.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ae4ff2c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ae4ff2c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8304249\" data-id=\"8304249\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d46ed7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5d46ed7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Bilancia Kaikora Vineyard Chardonnay 2022<\/b><\/p><p>A step up from the previous vintage that was in the 2021 box.

Some herbal notes add a little green to the spectrum too. A measured clarity to the palate, which is taut and lithe. The acidity holds sway, giving a silvery spine plus bags of energy to the flow through the middle. A dab of oak &#8211; more than I\u2019ve seen in recent vintages &#8211; guides the layered detail and framework.
