McArthur Ridge Vineyard

Call Directions Website

McArthur Ridge Vineyard Vineyard Established in the late 1800s, McArthur Ridge thrives in the rugged beauty of New Zealand's Central Otago.

Born from a desert-like land, our vineyard's dream became reality when water emerged in the 1990s. Dedicated to crafting exceptional Pinot Noirs, our journey began with 15 hectares in 2002, expanding to 160 hectares by 2007. Nestled on elevated slopes, our vineyards capture the warmth of gentle northern exposures. In the southernmost Pinot Noir region worldwide, our cool climate, infertile soils, and brief, scorching summers create an ideal haven for winemaking. Experience the essence of Central Otago's stunning contrasts at McArthur Ridge, where tradition meets innovation.

After the stillness of winter, the vineyard begins to stir. Tiny buds burst to life, vines stretch towards the warming sun, and a new vintage quietly begins. Spring is a season of promise - where every fresh shoot carries the potential for the wines to come. It's a reminder that even after the harshest conditions, new growth finds a way.
Beauty isn't rushed. It's nurtured, one season at a time.
