{"title":"Central Otago","description":"\u003cp\u003eTucked within the dramatic landscapes of New Zealand’s South Island lies Central Otago, the world’s southernmost commercial wine-producing region. Renowned for its spectacular scenery—rugged mountains, vast open plains, pristine rivers, and glacial lakes—Central Otago offers a remarkable combination of terroir, culture, and winemaking innovation. Despite its relative youth in commercial wine production, the region has quickly earned international acclaim, particularly for producing some of the world's finest Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\u003cp\u003eCentral Otago’s wine history is quite recent.

It wasn’t until the 1970s, however, that commercial viticulture winemaking began to gain traction, and as recently as the 1990 that Central Otago’s reputation as one of the world’s premier wine terroirs began to be established.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead our in-depth article exploring this region \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hedonism.co.uk\/rise-central-otago-new-world-pinot-noir-discovery\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"felton-road-block-6-chardonnay-2024","title":"Felton Road Block 6 Chardonnay 2024","description":null,"brand":"Felton Road","offers":[{"title":"Duty Paid","offer_id":62411010441546,"sku":"HED14582","price":56.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/7696\/2634\/files\/WINES_1.jpg?v=1782751804"},{"product_id":"peregrine-pinot-noir-2008","title":"Peregrine Pinot Noir 2008","description":null,"brand":"Hedonism Wines","offers":[{"title":"Duty Paid","offer_id":62411418206538,"sku":"HED07529","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/7696\/2634\/files\/HED07529.jpg?v=1781884967"},{"product_id":"cardrona-rose-rabbit-elderflower-liqueur","title":"Cardrona Rose Rabbit Elderflower Liqueur","description":"A small batch, single malt liqueur from the Cadrona Distillery.
