Craggy Range 'Te Muna Road' Sauvignon Blanc 2018
Craggy Range
A desire to build a beautiful legacy for his family is what drove businessman’s Terry Peabody’s pursuit of winemaking excellence, resulting in New Zealand’s stunning Craggy Range. A global search that commenced in 1996 saw the family scout for vineyards in the world’s greatest regions but it was a chance meeting with noted Kiwi viticulturist Steve Smith that steered fate and saw the Peabody family lay down their winemaking roots in New Zealand’s burgeoning Gimblett Gravels.
Enlisting the help of Steve Smith and a superior winemaking and viticulture team, Craggy Range has gone on to produce some of the world’s best Syrah, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay with a legacy that is set to live on for many more years to come. “This business is a legacy for the family still to come. We have ambitions to grow it further as every business has to grow to be successful. However, the mandate for the future will always continue to focus on producing quality wines,” says Terry Peabody.
