The ‘Rossendale’ wine brand of Brent and Shirley Rawstron has its base in Halswell, Christchirch where their function centre and 6.0 ha vineyard are situated. The main core of their business is based on 35 ha of vineyard in the Rapaura district. The wines are made at the Spring Creek custom crush facility and are primarily destined for export. The wines are delicious and varietal, and offer very good value. Here, I review the 2016 Marlborough Chardonnay. www.rossendale.co.nz
