From our iconic Prestige Collection, Les Beaux Cailloux is a chardonnay worth sharing.
Poised and expressive, it opens with the bright intensity of lemon curd, notes of roasted hazelnut and brioche, with a hint of white blossom and a characteristic salinity that glides effortlessly across the palate.
A wine that speaks of the stony soils it comes from, our 2022 vintage is best enjoyed with classic roast chicken, and even better with great company.
Our local guests often recommend Craggy Range as a must-do for friends visiting from overseas - a true showcase of the beauty and spirit of our region.
Beneath the watchful rise of the majestic Te Mata Peak in Hawke’s Bay, many have fond memories of tasting our iconic wines, enjoying an exceptional dining experience @craggyrangerestaurant, or unwinding in a luxurious stay - all paired with the warm hospitality that brings them back time and time again.
There is a deep sense of pride in sharing Craggy Range with others, and for many, our Giants Estate feels like the heart of it all - a place where every detail has been considered, to create moments, stories, and memories that speak to our passion and connection to this land.
As the vines slow at our Gimblett Gravels vineyard in Hawke`s Bay, the sheep are back to naturally maintain the weeds and grass, whilst also eliminating the need for machinery. We also look to nurturing soil health with compost enriched with grape marc, a byproduct of our winemaking.
This year, we are using a variable rate spreader guided by GPS and informed by drone-captured vigour maps. This technology allows us apply more nutrient-rich compost to low-vigour areas and less to those of high-vigour - an efficient and considered approach that allows us to work with the land, not against it.
