Craggy Range Gimblett Gravels Merlot 2010

The traditional Bordeaux cépage of varietal grapes, mostly Merlot with additions of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Franc, grown to the Craggy Range estate owned property in the prestigious Hawkes Bay precinct of Gimblett Gravels. The complex mix is finely attenuated each year to accomodate the vagaries of vintage. Craggy Range make an opulent, solidly structured Merlot that's feted by impresarios the world over. Deeply coloured and highly aromatic, Gimblett Gravels is effusive ans profoundly structured, underpinned by signature dusty tannins.

The Craggy Range vines are managed to a system of sustainable ecological viticulture. Every stage of the vine's growth is measured and compared to ensure balance and harmony with the environment. Pruning, removal of excess, thinning and arranging are all done by hand. Fruit is harvested from the Craggy Range Gimblett Gravels property. Grapes are completely destemmed and inoculated in fermenters for vinification. Upon comletion, Craggy Range is transferred to a selection of new and seasoned French oak barriques for fourteen months, followed by light fining and filtration. Alcohol 13.8%

Very dark red colour. A brooding bouquet of dark plums and blackberry. Wild thyme, rose florals and nutmeg nuances contributing to a lifted complexity. The silken texture unveils an intense core of fruit with cocoa and fresh tobacco characters. A rich palate that's tempered by balanced tannins and kept fresh by bright acidity. Merlot is a traditional accompaniement to lamb, the additions of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Franc make Craggy Range a superior match.

Single vineyard winemaking and Pinot Noir go hand in hand, such is this noble varietal's faculty for translating site into taste. This tempermental grape demands utmost sensitivity and care, the savoury, brooding characters of Martinborough grown Pinot Noir are cherished and preserved by an artisanal winemaking team obsessed with quality. Eight clones of Pinot Noir picked off more than forty different parcels on stony soils of the higher terraces at Te Muna Road Vineyard, are woven into a dark, brooding wine exhibiting layers of fruit and silken textures.

Craggy Range Te Muna Sauvignon Blanc 2012

[ More info ]

From the lower terrace of Te Muna Road Vineyard in Martinborough, grapes are picked off several parcels of vine grown to stony, limestone influenced soils adjacent Huangarua River. Intervention in the cellar is minimal out of respect for the true character of a special vineyard, whilst exposing the textural elements for a more evocative style of Sauvignon Blanc, achieving a wine with distinctive fine, soft, chalky texture and great elegance.
