Elephant Hill Vineyard

Nestled in the stunning landscapes of New Zealand’s Hawke’s Bay region, Elephant Hill Winery NZ has been a beacon of quality winemaking since its foundation in 2003. Situated close to the serene Pacific Ocean coast at Te Awanga, this winery stands as a proud member of the prestigious lineup of Hawke’s Bay region wineries. Reydan and Roger Weiss, the visionary founders, were originally charmed by the area during a 2001 holiday, which inspired them to establish Elephant Hill Estate & Winery.

Elephant Hill New Zealand boasts three vineyards that encapsulate the variety and richness of the region: the coastal Te Awanga Vineyard, the Gimblett Vineyard located in the heart of the Gimblett Gravels Winegrowers District, and the Triangle Vineyard in the Bridge Pa Triangle. These vineyards are pivotal in producing the distinct flavors found in Elephant Hill’s wines, aided by the diverse micro-climates and soils from shingle to ancient river beds.

The winemaking team at Elephant Winery Hawkes Bay, led by the talented winemaker Steve Skinner and his adept assistant, champions a blend of traditional techniques and modern innovations. Their commitment to sustainable farming practices ensures that each bottle of Elephant Hill Vineyard wine reflects the integrity and character of its origins. The winery utilizes hand-picked grapes and environmentally friendly technologies to manage their vineyards, preserving the natural beauty and fertility of their land for future generations.

Elephant Hill Winery crafts a wide range of wines, embracing both the classical and the innovative. From the bold and structured Syrah to the elegant and aromatic Sauvignon Blanc, each wine is a testament to the winery’s dedication to quality and flavor. As of 2023, Elephant Hill Winery New Zealand has produced an impressive portfolio that includes the robust Hieronymous, a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Malbec, and the delightful Rania, a botrytized dessert wine. The winery also offers a Reserve range featuring varietals such as Chardonnay and the Merlot-Malbec-Cabernet blend, alongside several “standard” range wines including varietal reds, whites, and a Tempranillo rosé.
