In the true expression of cool-climate Syrah, this wine exudes freshly cracked black pepper, crushed violets, red and black forest fruits and savoury smoky nuances. It has crunchy lifted acidity which carries the defined, fine-grain tannins and background of spicy, savoury oak.

Fruity & Floral

Established in 1996 the family owned, and managed vineyard produces wine with flavours that are a direct reflection of the Gladstone region. Ancient stony, alluvial soils
and a cool climate allows the grapes to grow in harmony in their environment. Sustainable practices and minimal intervention in the vineyard and winery allow our wines to display their distinctive single vineyard characteristics.

The harvested fruit was processed quickly into tank to retain the vibrant aromas and fresh acidity. The tank portion is fermented slow and cool to retain the varietal characters of Sauvignon Blanc. The wines are aged on light yeast lees for nine months before blending, fining and filtration.

A fragrant lift of spiced stone fruit, tropical fruits with a hint of dark herb notes. Packed with flavour, a core of ripe nectarine and lemon-lime acidity, finishing with passionfruit and blackcurrant.

The Crater Rim is a family-owned boutique winery situated in the rolling hills of Waipara, in the South Island of New Zealand. They produce sustainably crafted, terroir-driven wines from carefully selected sites well-suited to the varietals they cultivate. The first vintage produced by The Crater Rim was from a small hillside vineyard, high above the town of Akaroa on Banks Peninsula – and so the brand ‘The Crater Rim’ was born. 

Winemaker and Viticulturist Haydon Good strives to make wines of character and quality through a watchful, non-interventionist style. He uses a combination of new and traditional techniques and technology to allow the fruit to become wine. Haydon focuses on allowing the vineyard character to shine through in every bottle produced. 

Opening with an enticing bouquet of dark cherry and seasoned plums, followed by delicate hints of truffle and fragrant spices. On the palate, it's both soft and substantial, with plush, mouth-coating fruit and a seamless, velvety texture.
