Apr 25th, 2017Craggy Range is a family owned winery established in 1997 and is situated in the shadow of the spectacular Te Mata Peak in the area of Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. Ruby with a touch of purple on the edges and subtle aromas of black and red berry fruits with floral spice. On the palate black plum and raspberry flavors with fine soft tannins on a crisp acidic frame. The finish shows toasty oak, full-body on a lingering ending. Very Nice!

Jan 22nd, 2017It shows a medium dark tint in the glass while displaying some fairly dark and earthy traits on the nose. Black fruit, cola, tea and coffee all appear, along with a wisp of smoke. The palate is also dark, but accessible. There is an elegance to the wine that beckons, does not stiff arm. There is a rustic element, it's natural in New Zealand’s expression of Pinot Noir.

Jan 27th, 2016Savory and complex. Deep mineral, burned earth edge. With a little more body it would have been perfect.

Aug 2nd, 2019Such a pretty wine, with lovely pinosity. Feels nicely balanced at this age - definitely right in the drinking window. Florals above the fruit on the nose, depth beneath the fruit on the palate. Acid and tannins sitting in the right place. Drink and enjoy.
