Felton Road has become one of Central Otago’s most renowned wineries, celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Riesling. Since the late 1990s, under the leadership of Nigel Greening, the estate has embraced full organic and biodynamic practices, driven by Greening’s hands-off, vineyard-focused philosophy. Known for his wit, intelligence, and deep commitment to sustainability, he has guided Felton Road to its place among New Zealand’s leading wine producers.
As Greening himself so aptly puts it:
''Once we have such a place, we focus on discovering how to enable Pinot Noir to express it fully. This is why farming great Pinot Noir so often goes hand in hand with organics and biodynamics. Enabling the land to tell its story through the grapes that are grown on it requires that the land is neither polluted, nor degraded by the imposition of viticulture. Winemaking similarly is driven by humility and curiosity, not ego.''
It is our great pleasure to welcome Nigel Greening, who will personally guide guests through a remarkable line-up, including:
Felton Road Bannockburn Chardonnay 2023
