Wine Description
The Pinnacle Series are single vineyard wines which best display the outstanding sub regional terroir of our estate vineyards. This, our best, most concentrated Shiraz comes each year from ‘The Ridge’, a small part of our Griffin Road home vineyard. This wine is powerful, aromatic and densely layered, showing the capacity of our region for growing unique, concentrated Shiraz.

Born in England and raised in New Zealand, Chris Jessop has developed a deep passion for winemaking across four countries and 13 distinct regions. He studied Viticulture and Oenology at Lincoln University in Christchurch, which laid the foundation for his career.

His experience in warm and cool climates has enabled him to craft wines that truly reflect their origins. Chris joined Ross Hill Wines in late 2023, where he focuses on refining the portfolio and ensuring each bottle embodies the quality and commitment Ross Hill is known for.
