Craggy Range
Complexity, texture and elegance
Craggy Range’s Te Muna Road Vineyard is located 7km outside the Martinborough township. The vineyard is slightly elevated compared with other vineyards around the township but has the famous and unique soils of the Martinborough Terrace.
Craggy Range focuses on cultivating the classic cool climate varieties of sauvignon blanc and pinot noir. The vineyard is made up of two distinct terraces:
- One comprises very old stony soils at a higher altitude, and produces exceptional pinot noir. Stylistically the pinot noir wines show great complexity and a reserved intellectual feel and very good length.
- The second lower terrace comprises younger stony soils interlaced with lumps of limestone, providing an excellent environment for sauvignon blanc. All white wines from the vineyard show a distinctive fine soft chalky texture and great elegance.
