Harvest 2025 is officially underway! Today we started hand-harvesting the perfectly ripe Pinot Noir from our hillside blocks. With the weather forecast showing plenty of sunshine and warm days ahead, the 2025 harvest is shaping up to be a good one!

Our '24 Sauvignon Blanc was a high scoring SB in the AMW annual selection detailed in a recent Jancis Robinson article. "This is a decisive style of NZ SB but it is head and shoulders above the other 2024s in this line up, not just in complexity but also in depth of fruit."

Emma Jenkins MW's recent Decanter article features our 2022 Chardonnay. Awarding it an impressive 95 points, she brilliantly concludes "it’s the silken, assured palate with its rich fruit, fine acidity, concentration and balance that seduces.” decanter.com/premium/why-no…

The '25 harvest may be behind us but we loved seeing these photos taken by our own Elisa Roupenian Toha.cigui of the day we hand-picked our Sauvignon Blanc Section 94. Each year we quietly celebrate when we harvest this single vineyard parcel & this year's impressive crop was no different.

Located on the hill slopes of the Southern Valleys sub-region, Dog Point is steeped in history and proudly one of NZ's premium wine producers. Whilst pristine vineyards blanket the majority of the landscape, a large area is also devoted to pasture, landscaped lawns & waterways.

It's that time of year again where we welcome over 2,000 enthusiastic sheep to Dog Point. With the grape harvest behind us, the sheep are brought onto the property to control grass and weed growth and assist in adding organic matter to the soil.

Each month we look forward to reading Jancis Robinson's diary updates. In a recent entry, she described her night at the National Portrait Gallery, London for our 20yr anniversary. A great night! So pleased she enjoyed the wines, particularly Section 94. jancisrobinson.com/articles/janci…

Whilst pristine vineyards blanket the majority of the Dog Point landscape, a key part of our organic philosophy is the biodiversity of the property. A large area of land is devoted to pasture, lawn, natives, walkways and an extensive organic vegetable garden.
