Producer Information
Elephant Hill is a New Zealand wine estate located on the coast in the Hawke’s Bay region, producing a wide range of wines but perhaps best known for reds from Syrah and Bordeaux blends. Among numerous accolades for their wines, the 2013 Merlot-Malbec won the Trophy for Best New Zealand Red Wine at the 2015 International Wine Challenge in London. It was founded in 2003 by German businessman Roger Weiss (d. 2016) and his yacht designer wife Reydan after they visited the Te Awanga region while on holiday two years previously. Since 2015 the company has been headed by their son Andreas. A state-of-the-art, copper-clad winery was built at Te Awanga surrounded by one of the estate’s three vineyards. The other two are located on the Gimblett Gravels, and in the Bridge Pa Triangle. In total there are around 25 hectares (62 acres) of vines. The portfolio is headed by the Airavata Syrah, Hieronymous, a 60:20:20 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Malbec, and Rania, a botrytized dessert wine. A Reserve range features Syrah, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and a Merlot-Malbec-Cabernet blend.
