Akitu

Set in the heart of Central Otago’s Upper Clutha basin, our 12 hectare vineyard sits alone at 380 metres above sea level on a stunning north facing slope which hides a special geology. Here we are obsessively dedicated to the production of exceptional Pinot Noir, in fact it’s all we grow. We planted 40,000 vines in 2002; we patiently tended them then launched our wine – akitu (which means the apex or highest point) with our 2012 vintage. This is fine wine from a magnificent and unique place – Central Otago at its exceptional best.
