About Elephant Hill

The over-riding philosophy at Elephant Hill is about quality. We believe that great wines are hand-made wines where meticulous attention to detail will result in the highest quality wine. Our grapes are hand-picked from sustainably accredited vineyards, hand sorted and vinified in small batches. At Elephant Hill the winemaking is driven by tradition while not losing sight of what innovation can bring to the blend. Visit Elephant Hill is a vineyard and winery owned by the German Weiss family. Located within a stones’ throw of the Pacific Ocean on the idyllic Te Awanga coast in Hawke’s Bay. Stylish, warm and inviting the Elephant Hill is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy delicious wines. The Cellar Door offers guided seated wine tasting from 11am - 4pm, Friday- Sunday.
