The Hay Paddock Syrah

​      New Release Vintage 2013 now available

The low cropping vines of moderate vigour at our single vineyard estate on Waiheke Island produce wines which show great concentration, colour and complexity as well as ripe tannins in a long finish. The 2010 vintage has been awarded 5-stars by leading commentators including 91+ points from Robert Parker and a host of international gold medals.

Wine critic Bob Campbell and his Australian counterpart, Huon Hooke, announced the Hay Paddock as the Number One Waiheke Island wine from the remarkable 2013 vintage. 

​ROW 104 is a special selection of vines made by the winemaker and the wine has many years to travel before reaching optimum maturity.

PITCHFORK 2016
​
Hawkes Bay Classic Red

A blend of four classic varieties grown on Hawkes Bay's Gimblett Gravels, with Syrah and Malbec dominant providing a seamless integration of mellow fruit and a mid-weight palate  suited to many food styles.

THE NOVELIST 2013
​
​Waiheke Island Syrah

The excellent vintage in 2013 with dry conditions in late summer allowed extended hang time for the fruit resulting in soft ripe tannins and fully developed phenolics. Named for the winemaker who believes that fine wine, as with writing, benefits from careful ageing.

Gypsy Rose 2019
​
Eagerly awaited each year, our Gypsy Rose label from the 2019 vintage is available from October.
Here is the wine that perfectly expresses summer by the sea. Fresh, fragrant and beautifully pale with the delicate palate and aromas of Merlot fruit grown and harvested especially for this style. 

​The perfect wine to accompany seafood, salads, quiches and fresh fruit -- or simply on its own
