Cellar for up to 15 years. No need to decant before serving.

Located on the sun-baked, windblown inlet of Hawke’s Bay, under the gaze of Te Mata Peak, Craggy Range Winery is the home of pure, terroir-driven New Zealand wine. It was established in 1998 by the Peabody family, with one eye firmly fixed on becoming one of the biggest wine producers in the world.

The grapes for this wine were sourced from Martinborough, on the southern tip of New Zealand’s North Island. “Te Muna” is a Māori phrase meaning “secret/special place”, and for fans of Riesling, this will almost certainly ring true. This wine offers a special twist on the aromatic grape, packed with juicy and distinctly New Zealand character.

The nose is pungent, with scents of lime leaf, ripe lemon and delicate hints of rose petal. At its heart, this Riesling is a fresh, invigorating wine, with brilliant tension and a core of pure lemon. You can also discover vibrant citrus flavours of grapefruit, lime and mandarin peel, underpinned by a wiry acidity. This is a top-shelf Riesling, capable of ageing and evolving in the cellar for some time. It will be an excellent partner for spicy shrimp dishes, pork, or any kind of fresh seafood with a lemon twist.
