Craggy Range is a New Zealand winery based in Martinborough, in the Wairarapa region of the North Island's lower section. The estate operates vineyards across multiple terroirs, with significant holdings in the Gimblett Gravels subregion of Hawkes Bay as well as their home base in Martinborough. The producer focuses exclusively on still wines, with a portfolio built around both white and red varieties suited to New Zealand's cool and maritime-influenced growing conditions.

Martinborough has established itself as a centre for Pinot Noir and cool-climate whites, while the Gimblett Gravels—a distinctive alluvial fan of water-worn stones in Hawkes Bay—is known for producing riper, more structured reds that benefit from the thermal properties of the gravelly soils. Craggy Range's current range reflects this terroir diversity: their white wines emphasise Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, with the Chardonnays from the Kidnappers vineyard showing the house's interest in age-worthy expressions. On the red side, the winery works with both Bordeaux varieties and Syrah, producing blended and single-varietal wines that draw on the character of their respective sites.

The inventory includes both entry-level and premium bottlings across vintage years, with notable examples such as their Gimblett Gravels blend Sophia (a Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot blend from 2016) and Le Sol (a Syrah from the same vintage). These selections demonstrate the producer's engagement with both classic Bordeaux blending traditions and cooler-climate expressions of Syrah.
