Bendigo, Central Otago

Once a gold mining region, Bendigo is framed by ancient, dry hills and fanned by westerly winds. The arid 'hot-cool' growing conditions yield premium pinot noir with vibrant, cherry-like spicy flavours and a texture that's pure velvet.

"The site of our Bendigo vineyard is probably one of the best, if not the best. It's in a very good location (GI - geographical indication) - perfect for pinot noir." Duncan Cramp, Waipara Hills viticulturalist.
