Founded in 1897, the Church Road Winery was already more than 90 years old when it was purchased by Montana, in 1988 and completely renovated, turning it into a modern boutique winery that applies hands-on winemaking techniques to the very best of the Hawke's Bay harvest.
Ask our senior winemaker, Tony Prichard, what makes Church Road stand apart and he swiftly answers: We embrace Old World winemaking philosophies with one arm and technological winemaking advancements with the other.
The winerys commitment to centuries-old winemaking techniques is genuine, not cosmetic. Giant French oak, cuves, (meaning wine vats) are used to ferment the winerys acclaimed Bordeaux-style red wines, before they begin ageing in the French oak barriques which line the winerys cellars.
