1 x Craggy Range Hawke's Bay Rosé 2022
Awarded 93/100 Points: Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Oct 2022
"A very pale salmon and light apricot hues and star bright appearance. Fragrant with a light peach and apricot scent, very floral and quite delicate, some light dried herb and berry qualities. Very silky textured on the palate with a core of fruit contrasted by acidity. A wine with finesse and charm, delicacy and mineral. Perfect drinking for summer 2023" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Oct 2022
Brilliant bright veiled rose in colour. Lifted juniper and rosewater perfume with underlying crushed wild berry fragrance. The palate has a textural succulence of raspberry and pomegranate fruits, finely balanced with a savoury phenolic line. Delicious.
Alc: 13%
1 x Craggy Range Kidnappers Single Vineyard Hawke's Bay Chardonnay 2022
The wine’s colour transforms into a pale straw hue, instantly evoking the coastal essence of the vineyard. The bouquet carries hints of oyster shells, sea spray, and cashew, further reinforcing its seaside character. A sense of vibrancy and freshness on the palate is complemented by lively acidity that doesn’t compromise flavour. The taste of fresh lemon curd and subtle oak adds richness and makes for a delicious and invigorating palate.

1 x Craggy Range Te Kahu Gimblett Gravels Vineyard Merlot Cabernet 2020
Deepest crimson red. Brooding aromatically with notes of cassis, black olive and dried tobacco enveloping a dense core of blue fruits. The wine has a lovely focus on the palate with dark fruits framed by fine tannins to deliver a classical structure with an excellent future ahead. 1 to 10 years from vintage.
Food Pairing: Braised lamb.
Alc: 14.1%
1 x Craggy Range Te Muna Road Single Vineyard Martinborough Pinot Noir 2022
Burgundy in colour with a light crimson hue. Dried lavender and garigue, distinctly Te Muna perfume on the nose. An elegant palate with a warm core of brambled wild berries, porcini mushroom and red cherry in balance with the silk-laden tannins, which perfectly frame the wine. It speaks volumes to an incredible site.
Alc: 13.5%
1 x Craggy Range Single Vineyard Gimblett Gravels Syrah 2020
Awarded Trophy: Best in Show: Decanter World Wine Awards 2022
Awarded 97/100 Points: Decanter World Wine Awards 2022
"The Gimblett Gravels endeavour is a model for terroir research outside traditional regions, and recent generous vintages have really begun to pay off for this disciplined private association of Hawke's Bay wine growers. This is glorious Syrah: deep, dense and black-red in colour, with classic varietal aromas which combine inner urgency with sweet seduction. On the palate the wine offers a cascade of fruit, with tempered acidity and shy tannins. It's the grain to that fruit which impresses so: primary (plum, currant and sloe) yet nuanced, too, perfumed to the last drop and with a sense of stone behind the fruit to lend it dignity and keep you coming back to the glass for more" Decanter World Wine Awards 2022
Deepest red with a vibrant purple hue. So much lift and perfume. Violets, lavender and maraschino cherries lift from the glass. The palate has hallmarks of the gravels in graphite and black pepper. Olive tapenade, mullberries and spicy, gamey notes in abundance. The palate has prominent ripe tannins and an intensity that speaks to a warm vintage. However, the succulence of fruit and beauty of the fruit speaks to that of a truly iconic vintage. Medium to full bodied, the unique savoury and fruit balance is sure to entice all flavours of Syrah from the Gimblett Gravels.
Food Pairing: Roasted garlic and thyme lamb rack, squid ink linguine.
Alc: 13.5%
