Nevis Bluff
Central Otago, South Island
The world’s southernmost wine region is found in Central Otago, New Zealand, in the same 45 degree latitude as top winegrowing regions in France.
From one of Central Otago’s best known high country sheep stations owned by the Cook family, to a boutique vineyard planted under the prominent Gibbston Valley landmark from which it takes its name, Nevis Bluff is one of Central Otago’s original pinot producers. They gained instant recognition with their first commercial vintage and have since enjoyed top accolades and excellent reviews. An eight hectare vineyard was planted in 1993 and from those beginnings they have grown their vines dedicated to providing superior Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris with consistent quality.
As well as harvesting the grapes from the original vineyard in the Gibbston Valley, their grapes are also sourced from L’Attitude Vineyard, based in the Cromwell basin. This top quality vineyard is planted to Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Riesling, ensuring excellence in grape quality and the ability to blend wines from two geographic sub regions.
