Calvert Vineyard

19/07/2026

Our w**e gets around ....A couple of excellent trips recently

Sundarbans - deep in the southwest of Bangladesh cruising around the channels that make up the massive Ganges Delta.
No tigers spotted.... but still well worth it.

Bhutan .... more specifically Tang Valley... where I started my career in international development.
Delighted and feel very privileged to have been able to stay at the Ogyen Choling place guest house .

In a direct line these two locations are only a distance of about 500km
But worlds apart in terms of geography and culture

Same excellent w**e ....😊

We are thrilled that the Calvert Pinot is being served in the Auckland Airport Emirates business class lounge - thanks Emirates!!
Equally thrilled when shebikeshebikes sent this photo through earlier today.
Great w**e and great biking to be had in Central Otago .... the sign says it all "Enjoy the Rewards"

2025 harvest is all complete and the grapes are now in the very capable hands of the w**emaker. Normally I try to be back for the picking, but sadly not this year, however lovely to have these photos sent to me!

With only three vintages released, we are really thrilled to be included in this Top Wineries list.

At the same time we are humbled and very grateful to those who have contributed to our w**e journey; notably Felton Road, Craggy Range, Pyramid Valley and Cloudy Bay - recognizing they all made this list as well !! 😊

In February I did some tastings in Auckland and Wellington and included some of the earlier vintages - tasting great!
