Esk Valley

Esk Valley

Esk Valley is a pioneering New Zealand winery located in Hawke’s Bay and celebrated for its traditional, hands-on approach. Under the guidance of winemaker Gordon Russell, Esk Valley champions small-batch production using open-topped concrete fermenters - a technique rarely seen today. Their unique focus on expressing specific plots, particularly the exceptional Gimblett Gravels with its stony soils from ancient riverbeds, allows their wines to convey remarkable character and a deep sense of place.
