Pegasus Bay wines are shaped by the unique climate and soils of the Waipara Valley, where long, dry autumns, cooling alpine influences and limestone-rich clay soils allow grapes to ripen slowly and evenly. Vineyards are sustainably farmed, hand harvested and cropped at low yields to build natural concentration and balance. Winemaking favours extended hang time, gentle extraction and careful oak integration, resulting in wines with depth, texture and impressive ageing potential. The estate is particularly celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Riesling and Chardonnay, alongside expressive Sauvignon Blanc and Merlot-based reds. Pegasus Bay has earned consistent international acclaim, including top ratings from leading critics and multiple trophies, with its wines frequently cited among New Zealand’s finest. Elegant yet powerful, they are renowned for complexity, longevity and a distinctive Waipara signature. View the full range below
