Stoneleigh is a premium New Zealand wine that expresses the vibrancy & fresh flavours of the Marlborough region through their minimal intervention winemaking philosophy & collaboration with nature. Situated in the heart of the Wairau Valley in New Zealand’s famous Marlborough wine region, Stoneleigh Vineyard is part of a remarkable winegrowing area. The cool climate, high sunshine hours and distinctive stone studded Rapaura soils in Marlborough provide the ideal conditions for their signature style – uniquely fresh, crisp & aromatically rich wine ripened by sunstones, sustainably sourced and vegan certified. Ultimately, Stoneleigh believe that beautiful things can happen when we partner with nature and actively work with it hence why they use sunstones from an ancient riverbed to naturally ripen their vines, bringing richer, more vibrant flavours to their grapes. Sustainability is also an important part of their journey as they have dedicated over 23 hectares to biodiversity projects and a further 8 hectares to regenerative land. Additionally, they use 100% sustainably sourced grapes and absolutely no animal products from grape to bottle.

This wine has a deep, ruby-red hue and a fragrant bouquet of strawberry, blackberry, and dark cherry overlaid with integrated oak spice. The palate shows ripe, dark berry fruit, and cherry flavours with lingering fruit sweetness. Tannins are soft and supple, making the wine immediately approachable. This wine is best enjoyed with succulent red meat dishes, such as spring lamb, duck, veal or game.
