Product description
Stonyridge is the dream of owner Stephen White. In 1981 Stephen returned to New Zealand after sailing a Whitbread Round the World
Race and working at wineries in France, California and Italy. It was during this three-year adventure that Stephen came to love
the great red wines of France, Tuscany and California. Then, Stephen identified what is now Stonyridge on Waiheke Island in New
Zealand as the ideal north-facing site to ripen and produce world-class Bordeaux-style wines.
Airfield is a beautiful expression of a Waiheke Merlot dominant wine. The colour is a vibrant ruby.The wine shows some fresh raspberry and dark cherry as well as some subtle notes of cinnamon from the French oak influence. The mouth comes together with some soft silky tannins balancing the acidity.
