The setting, the staff, the menu were all fantastic at Craggy Range. Whole sole, snapper fillets and shared pork dish were amazing, followed by delicious home made ice cream all accompanied by superb wine. We were even offered a hat for the sun as we chose not to sit under umbrella. A fabulous afternoon.

We had a great meal on the terrace. The food was excellent, the wine pairing perfect and the service very good and efficiant. A great experience.

The Terroir restaurant is obviously pitched somewhat up market and we found the service to be friendly and excellent but both the lamb and beef cuts we had were a bit chewy which was disappointing as that is where quality dining starts. Having said that they were cooked and presented well. The ravioli was 2 large pieces of ravioli covered... More

My husband & I were fortunate to have been invited to their Club Day in March. We both travelled from different corners of the world to be there & were so very glad we made the effort. They put on a fabulous day, which we both thoroughly enjoyed. The weather was perfect (if not a little too warm). We sat... More

We had a spectacular dinner at craggy range- food was impeccable. Entrees/starters/appetizers are very small and not intended for sharing. Main courses on the other hand are huge and definitely for sharing. The crayfish and abalone ravioli with sea urchin foam was...interesting. The roast pork with salad nicoise & crackling good for 2 was almost good for 3. The whole... More

More like a showcase than a working vineyard. A tour led by Graham - 'Wine Ambassador' at Craggy Range - was disappointing. Obviously a knowledgeable gentleman, but lacked enthusiam, we felt like he was doing us a favour showing us round. We had booked for dinner but cancelled based on our experience during the tour. The big boys would could... More

Craggy Range has an accompanying restaurant, as do many other New Zealand wineries. One should always book in advance for lunch or dinner. We were staying with family in the region - who love the place - so did not try for accommodation. Wines and restaurant are both outstanding, even by the high standards of New Zealand. We arrived in... More

Fabulous setting, wonderful wine. However the (American?/ South African?) chap who came to serve us in the tasting room was the epitome of what you do not want for front of house. We were trying to purchase some wines we had tried the evening before at Craggy Ranges restaurant, Terroir (excellent restaurant - food and staff amazing!). This employee spoke... More

The Winery itself is stunning with a lovely garden area for a meal, we went for a tasting as part of a wine tour. We were rushed some of us had not finished one wine when they were wanting to pour the next wine. This was our 4th stop and for a high end vineyard we were all very dissappointed... More
