Pyramid Valley - This unique site of altitude, limestone, slope, rock and rich soil is our Waikari Estate and home to some of the most profound Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines in the world. In 2018 our story breathed a new chapter when we purchased a new vineyard, the Manata Estate in Lowburn, Central Otago. The vineyard has produced exceptional Pinot Noir since 2002 and is home to our Central Otago Pinot Noir. Across both sites biodynamic viticulture and a natural approach to winemaking create handcrafted wine that breathes of its place and tastes like nowhere else on earth.

The 'Appellation Collection' is Pyramid Valley's view of the three great South Island appellations of New Zealand - North Canterbury, Central Otago and Marlborough. Working with exceptional growers, the Appellation Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc share the same sense of somewhereness as the wines from Pyramid Valley's very own estate.

This wine is bright in appearance with a deep crimson hue. Deep brooding nose of plum and blue fruits with lifted floral spicy notes. Full bodied Pinot Noir with ripe, rich fruits, mouth filling texture and round plush tannins giving the wine weight and power with a savoury moreish finish.
