Located in the Bridge Pa Triangle region of Hawkes Bay, Paritua is a 53ha organically farmed vineyard and winery producing some of Hawkes Bay’s best classically styled wines. Hawkes Bay born and bred, winemaker Jason Stent discovered the great wines of France when he was in a racing cycle team based in Bordeaux. After a number of years as assistant winemaker at Sacred Hill, working alongside Tony Bish, he joined Paritua as their winemaker in 2008.

Paritua’s focus is on premium wine. Wine bearing the Paritua's label are only produced in outstanding vintages, while the Stone Paddock label is produced every year. The winery also sells excess fruit to maintain the high quality of their own wines. There is no doubting that Paritua produce some of Hawkes Bay's top wines.

Winery notes (2025 Vintage)
"Ripe stone fruit aromas of peach and nectarine, with notes of ripe mandarin freshly baked brioche, nougat, vanilla and a hint of clove, add to the complexity and interest on the nose. A silky attack with sweet fruit flavours of peach nectarine and clove in the rich textural mid palate and with hints of nougat and vanilla balanced with fine oak and lingering grapefruit citrus finish."

Reviews for the 2024 vintage below…

95/100 & Top 100 New Zealand Wines of 2025, JamesSuckling.com (2024 Vintage)
"A precise, lively and textured chardonnay showing spiced apples, dried pears, sweet baking spices and custard on the nose. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Such drive and focus on the palate, with a flavourful finish. From organically grown grapes."

5 Stars & 95/100 Candice Chow, Wine Chat (2024 Vintage)
"Pure & lifted aromas of peach, citrus, floral, vanilla, warm brioche and delicate spice. An irresistible creamy mouthfeel carries pristine fruit, struck by spice and acid tension, unfolding toasty details and lending a lengthy, elegant finish."

Rated Excellent & 94/100 Cameron Douglas MS, June 2025 (2024 Vintage)
"An excellent bouquet, modern, ripe, taut and enticing. Aromas of grapefruit and white peach then scents of barrel and stony soil mineral ideas. As the wine opens out in glass it becomes more complex and intriguing. A dry wine on the palate, tension and texture then core fruit flavours that mirror the bouquet. Fine tannins from both wood and fruit and a backbone of acidity with a gentle flinty quality. Poised and new, a wine that has power and impact, flavour and texture. Best drinking from late 2025 through 2030+."
