Dog Point is an outstanding, award-winning winery in Marlborough. In 2004 Ivan Sutherland and James Sealy decided to take the skills they'd learnt as viticulturalist and winemaker at Cloudy Bay and set up on their own. They had a head start as Ivan had planted vineyards in Marlborough way back in the 1970s. Dog Point remains very much family-owned – a boutique winery unequivocally focused on high-quality wines, produced as naturally as possible. Planted in 1983, the vines are some of the oldest Pinot Noir in the region and include six different clones. Using indigenous yeasts from hand-picked fruit, the wine is meticulously made with 18 months' ageing in French oak. Open early, let it breathe and serve with duck or mushroom ragoût.

"High-energy wine with impressive purity. An elegant and youthful pinot noir with cellaring potential" Bob Campbell
