Winery Craggy Range

Craggy Range was born from the Peabody family's vision to create a lasting winemaking heritage. The estate was developed by selecting distinctive parcels in the Gimblett Gravels and Te Muna Road regions; the company formally dates its founding to 1998 and has established a long-term family trust to preserve the estate's legacy.

Strong focus on winemaking from estate vineyards and a single-vineyard philosophy to highlight the character of each site. Strong emphasis on sustainability, with a plan to convert to organic practices and adopt biodynamic and regenerative approaches, alongside a long-term commitment to land conservation.

The main estates are located in the Gimblett Gravels district, characterized by gravelly soils and a warm, sheltered climate ideal for Syrah and Bordeaux blends, and in the Te Muna Road valley, with alluvial terraces and a wide diurnal temperature range that favours Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc.

Craggy Range's restaurant has received accolades including Three Hats, Chef of the Year and Winery Restaurant of the Year at the Cuisine Good Food Awards. Some of the estate's wines have earned scores and medals from international publications and competitions such as Decanter, James Suckling and Wine Spectator.
