Our roots are embedded in the free draining rocks and loess of the riverbed, capturing the character of the land.

Our vines are warmed by day and cooled by night, in an extreme climate influenced by the mountains and sea.

And our philosophy is to bend to nature, letting the Awatere Valley imprint itself upon every Eradus wine. The result is wine that speaks of the old world and the new, with the fruit driven character Marlborough is known for, along with the minerality and crisp clean acidity delivered by this harsh environment.
