Hieronymus is a Bordeaux-style red blend named after a notable family ancestor, Hieronymus Ebner von Eschenbach, who was Lord Mayor of Nuremberg 1514–1524. The Icon range represents the pinnacle of Elephant Hill’s winemaking — hand crafted in small batches, in low volumes, from a selection of only the best grapes from the best vineyard blocks, and aged in the best quality French barrels. These special wines are for collecting and cellaring and will age well in bottle for many years.

Elephant Hill’s Gimblett Gravels vineyard is planted on the iconic Stone soils of the Gimblett Gravels Winegrowing District in Hawke’s Bay — ancient riverbeds of free-draining shingle and gravel that concentrate flavour and impart a distinctive minerality. Each grape variety is fermented separately and only free-run juice is used, with natural primary fermentation and natural malolactic fermentation.
