We tasted, we toasted, and—thanks to these winemaking legends—we fundraised! 🙌🍷
A massive THANK YOU to the Hawke's Bay winemakers who donated their finest to this year’s auction. Cheers to an epic 2024! 🥂
🎄 Procrastinating on Christmas shopping? Don't stress — head to your local wine store or cellar door and pick up a bottle of Hawke’s Bay wine. Supporting local tastes so good!

Ray McKimm and Julie Russell have dedicated an enormous amount of time and energy to the Hawke's Bay Wine Auction and to Cranford Hospice over many, many years.
Both were founding Trustees of the Hawke's Bay Wine Auction Charitable Trust, and while they have chosen to step down from their official roles, we will continue to hold tight to them as part of our wider HBWA family!
It was our privilege to be able to present them with these beautiful Kowhia etchings as a small token of thanks from the HBWA, Cranford Hospice Foundation and Cranford Hospice Trust.
🤍 Thank you, Ray and Julie, for the considerable impact you have made, and for the time and expertise you have so generously given.

❤️ What a very special moment it was handing over this year's cheque for a whopping $335,697.
We were thrilled to share it with some of the Cranford Hospice team, Sandra Hazlehurst, Mayor of Hastings and many of our sponsors.
A huge part of the reason we can make the commitment that every cent raised at the auction is donated to Cranford is thanks to the ongoing generosity of our sponsors.
So, as we close out a very successful 2024, we send our thanks to the local businesses and councils whose support means the world to us and Cranford Hospice.

What a day put on by Radburnd Cellars and Hawthorne House Boutique B&B in Hawke's Bay for the lucky winners of lot 11 at this year’s auction.
We wonder what unique experience this team will concoct for the 2025 auction 🤔🍷
