Cable Bay’s wines reflect the expressive diversity of its Waiheke Island and Marlborough vineyards, crafted with a careful, hands-on approach that celebrates terroir and quality. Waiheke’s warm maritime climate and clay-rich soils lend depth and texture to full-bodied reds such as Syrah and the Bordeaux-style Five Hills blend, while cooler sites in the Awatere Valley support vibrant Sauvignon Blanc, elegant Pinot Gris, and refined Chardonnay. Vines are managed sustainably, with low yields and meticulous canopy care to enhance natural flavour intensity and balance. Winegrowing philosophy at Cable Bay centres on minimal intervention in the cellar, allowing fruit character and site distinction to shine. Over the years many releases have garnered accolades from respected critics and competitions, with standout wines recognised for their structure, poise and expressive fruit — a testament to cable bay’s commitment to hand-crafted excellence and a true sense of place.
