Smith & Sheth
Smith & Sheth was founded in 2014 by Steve Smith MW and Brian Sheth, united by a shared vision to craft world-class wines from exceptional vineyards across Aotearoa New Zealand.
Steve Smith MW is one of the country’s most respected figures in wine, known for founding Craggy Range and as one of New Zealand’s few Masters of Wine. Together, Smith and Sheth operate as contemporary négociants, sourcing outstanding fruit from carefully selected vineyard sites and working closely with growers to capture the essence of each region.
At the heart of the wines is a strong sense of place—what the French call terroir, and in New Zealand is reflected in the concept of tūrangawaewae, a deep connection to the land.
The Sauvignon Blanc is a pure expression of this philosophy—fresh, vibrant, and elegantly structured, reflecting both the character of the site and the precision of the winemaking.
