The 2016 Le Sol is perhaps the most confident, self-assured expression of Syrah to yet emerge from this benchmark producer. I say that because it no longer relies on weight, power and extraction for its impressiveness, but rather on its wonderful fragrance and elegance. Perfumed notes of violets and cracked pepper lead the way, backed by anise and black cherries. It's medium to full-bodied, with a rich, velvety mouthfeel and tremendous length, echoing with hints of clove, cinnamon and sassafras.

Craggy Range is a family owned winery established in 1997 and situated in the shadow of the spectacular Te Mata Peak in the premium wine growing area of Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand.

Craggy Range produces a collection of iconic wines from multiple regions throughout the country. Owner Terry Peabody and his family pursued the single vineyard approach to winemaking, planting on green fields and bare land ensuring a focus on quality from the very beginning.

New Zealand, with its diversity of soil types offered the perfect location to plant the vines. From the stony, warm soils of the Gimblett Gravels in Hawke's Bay to the volcanic, clay soils of Te Muna Road in Martinborough these exceptional vineyards produce wines with amazing aromatics, purity and complexity.

The wines, produced for the Prestige and Family Collections are pure expressions of the unique terroir in which they were grown.

Hawke's Bay is a wine region located on the east coast of New Zealand's North Island. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the 19th century when French missionaries first planted vines in the area. Today, Hawke's Bay is known for producing some of New Zealand's finest wines, particularly red wines made from Bordeaux grape varieties.

The region's climate is warm and dry, with long, sunny days and cool nights. This combination of factors creates ideal growing conditions for grapes, allowing them to ripen slowly and develop complex flavours. Hawke's Bay is particularly well-suited to growing Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah grapes, which thrive in the region's warm, dry climate.

Hawke's Bay is also known for its Chardonnay wines, which are made from grapes grown in the cooler, coastal areas of the region. These wines are characterised by their crisp acidity, bright fruit flavours, and subtle oak notes.

In addition to wine, Hawke's Bay is also home to a thriving craft spirits industry. The region's distilleries produce a range of spirits, including gin, vodka, and whisky, using locally-sourced ingredients and traditional production methods.

Overall, Hawke's Bay is a region that offers a diverse range of high-quality wines and spirits, with a focus on traditional production methods and a commitment to sustainability. Whether you're a wine lover or a spirits enthusiast, there's something for everyone to enjoy in this beautiful corner of New Zealand.
