Ostler Vineyards is a boutique producer of wines of distinction in the South Island’s Waitaki Valley. From select and hand-tended vineyards we produce memorable cool climate wines: Pinot noir, Pinot gris and Riesling.

It’s all about terroir

• Uncompromising standards of cool-climate viticulture
• Growing grapes in the Waitaki Valley – New Zealand’s newest premium wine region
• Passionately producing wines of elegance and balance

'38 million years in the making'

The wine making is carried out with as little intervention as possible by Jeff Sinnott using the traditional techniques of Burgundy and Alsace, with subtle use of oak.

Cellar Door

In December 2009 we opened the 'Vintner's Drop' - a Waitaki Valley regional wine tasting room in the Old Post Office in Kurow.

During the summer season we are open 7 days.

During the winter we are closed for tastings and bottle sales except for group tastings which are available by arrangement.
