Steve Smith MW’s new operation Smith & Sheth Cru

Steve Smith MW is featured in an article by Ken Gargett of Quill & Pad, discussing his new operation Smith & Sheth Cru with partner Brian Sheth. Steve and Brian share a love for the same things: fine wine, Aotearoa New Zealand and enjoying life’s pleasures. They met in Hawke’s Bay over a glass of Chardonnay and in 2014 realised their vision of founding a wine dream together. An extract from the article: “In all honesty, in these early days for Cru, unless you are based in New Zealand, or for some of the releases Australia, they will be hard to find, though I understand that the winery can ship wines internationally and presumably could advise of costs in those circumstances. I have every confidence that it will not take long before Smith & Sheth Cru takes its place among the world’s exciting emerging wineries.”
