Gunn Estate are world class, having claimed top trophy at the International Chardonnay France, 5 Winestate Stars, Gold ANZ and Blue-Gold at the Sydney International, all for varietal whites.

Winemaker Denis Gunn is adept at crafting champion, trophy winning chardonnays. A unique combination of soil, climate and geography gives Gunn Estate grapes a natural advantage before they've even been introduced to the winemaker. Denis has pulled the reins around some superlative batches of fine Hawkes Bay fruit and crafted a punch bowl of a Chardonnay without any oak treatment whatsoever. A long warm and dry summer has given us wonderfully ripe fruit with great intensity and balance. Carefully harvested grapes were gently pressed and cool fermented in steel tank. Blending of various vineyard components has resulted in a well balanced varietal wine. Alcohol 13.0%
