Wine Country Craft

So much time is devoted to appreciating the contents of a wine barrel, that little thought goes into the craftsmanship of the actual vessel. Pete Roberts of Wine Country Craft transforms retired barrels from Hawke's Bay vineyards into platters and cheese boards, garden planters and tables. “I loved the thought of taking what is effectively a waste product and turning it into something functional and beautiful,” says Pete. True to form the company's little black shop by the Havelock North Bridge was once a derelict building destined for the tip, which he and his wife Kate lovingly restored. 66 Havelock Road, Havelock North.
