Family owned in Esk Valley

Petane is a small, dry farmed vineyard situated in Esk Valley, Hawke’s Bay, dedicated to the production of boutique single-vineyard wine. Our wines are both premium in quality and unique from vintage to vintage. With a combination of the optimal site and environment, careful rootstock and clone selection and thoughtful vineyard management practices, we work with nature to achieve well balanced, interesting wine that reflects the site and the vintage.

Award Winning Pinot Gris

Pinot Gris is a noble grape and for Petane, it's king. A prodigious gold medal and trophy collector, every vintage we strive for a flavour intense, lush and generous wine style.

Selectively hand-picked, phenologically ripe berries are gently whole bunch pressed and, post ferment, the wine is left on its yeast lees for 8 months to evolve. A further four months of bottle maturation, prior to release, allows the wine to rest and achieve its full potential.
