Perfecting Martinborough’s venerable style
THE QUEST
The Home Block is where it all began back in 1980, and our quest to perfect Martinborough’s venerable style continues here today with some of the oldest Pinot Noir vines in New Zealand. Winemaker Tom Turner’s pursuit of perfection starts in the vineyard and can be found in every structured, balanced, nuanced glass of Home Block and Te Tera.
THE HOME BLOCK
is where it all began
Established in 1980, Martinborough Vineyard is a winery created by true pioneers, driven as much by passion as logic, and this attitude prevails today.
Martinborough arguably produces the best
PINOT NOIR
As one of the first to plant Pinot Noir, we now lay claim to the oldest Pinot Noir vines not only Martinborough, but also New Zealand.
Almost everything we do in the winery is done
