I\u2019ve long regarded this label as one of the region\u2019s hidden gems \u2013 this goes back to a bottle of 2005 Merlot that I had on my first ever trip to Hawke\u2019s Bay, and is one of those revelation moments. They make a red blend called &#8216;<em>Epitome<\/em><strong>&#8216;<\/strong> that is an unusual collage of Syrah with the usual Bordeaux varietals. A light to medium weight wine that can be enjoyed young, it\u2019s a winner! The regular Chardonnay always hits the target \u2013 spicy, oaky and with a decent concentration of ripe fruit in 2018 and 2019 \u2013 over a few tastings, I\u2019ve decided I\u2019d go for this over the Reserve Chardonnay. Both good, but the $25 version is excellent value and all you\u2019re after in a Hawke\u2019s Bay Chardonnay \u2013 and this is just your first stop!!<\/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-cc9d548 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"cc9d548\" 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-86ceb93\" data-id=\"86ceb93\" 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-7a013eb elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"7a013eb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\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-224bd0e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"224bd0e\" 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-8c1a085\" data-id=\"8c1a085\" 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-76a94e5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"76a94e5\" 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>Next stop along the route into Hawke\u2019s Bay is <strong>Radburnd Cellars<\/strong> at 724 Main North Rd,\u00a0Bay View.

It\u2019s unusual to find an original building such as here where it was purpose-built as a winery, from 25cm thick hand-made blocks. A deliberately \u2018boutique\u2019 operation, the family is clear in it\u2019s search for quality over quantity, and is best known for some rich, concentrated reds \u2013 although winning Gold medals (and Trophies) for wines such as the barrel-fermented Viognier in recent years, shows the quality across the range.<\/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-1a698dc elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1a698dc\" 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-21f0061\" data-id=\"21f0061\" 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-b0f7ce7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b0f7ce7\" 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>The Cellar Door is open daily from 10am to 4pm, and offers tastings across the range.
