Greylands Ridge
Situated in Letts Gully, Alexandra, our vineyard is able to access all the special things that make Central Otago Pinot Noir such a sought after wine. Our vineyard covers 4.2 ha and we planted the first half in 2002 on ungrafted roots. The remainder was planted in 2003 on phylloxera resistant rootstocks.
From that time they have received the influence of hot sunny days and extremely cold night frosts to create the fine vintage that we present to you now.
The Greylands Ridge Vineyard has 12000 plants which produces 1500 – 1700 cases of wine in a good season. The bud burst occurs in October and harvesting takes place in late April or early May. The 2006 vintage was harvested in the second week of May.
