The Wine
Dog Point is an award-winning winery located in the heart of Marlborough. Ivan Sutherland and James Sealy embarked on their own winemaking journey in 2004, taking the skills they’d learnt as viticulturalist and winemaker at Cloudy Bay with them. They had a head start as Ivan had planted vineyards in Marlborough back in the 1970s. Today, Dog Point remains a family-owned boutique winery with an unwavering focus on producing high-quality wines as naturally as possible. Planted in 1983, the vines are some of the oldest Pinot Noir in the region and feature six different clones. Using indigenous yeasts from hand-picked fruit, the wine had 18 months of ageing in French oak. Drinking very well now, it's a great choice with duck or mushroom ragout.
