--------THE PRODUCER--------

Stonecroft

Stonecroft is a small, family owned winery making organic Gimblett Gravels wines in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. The owners are Dermot McCollum and Andria Monin, who live on the Roy’s Hill vineyard with their two children Emer and Oscar, plus Jasper the cat and Stanley the chocolate lab.

At Stonecroft, we seek to express through our wines the unique character of our vineyards and each vintage. We seek to make wines which are intense,  elegant and fruit-driven, but capable of significant bottle development. The ability of our wines to improve in bottle has been demonstrated over more than 30 years, with many of the early examples still drinking well. Our total production is very small; with around 3000 cases produced annually over a number of varieties. Both the vineyards and the winery are certified organic.

--------THE REGION--------

Hawke's Bay

Sunny Hawkes Bay is along the eastern coast of New Zealand's north island. It is here where some of the most fruit-forward wines come from. They are known for their tropical Chardonnays and their juicy reds from the excellent Bordeaux wines to the peppery Syrahs.
