"Vibrant, fresh, youthful, a fruity & very engaging bouquet. The flavours showcase berry & plum, a savoury dried herb & wild thyme layer, clove, vanilla & five spice-ish taste. Well made, lengthy & delicious." Cameron Douglas MS
Our Story
In 1997 the land that sits beneath a range of 'bald hills' in Bannockburn, Central Otago was identified as the ideal place to produce cool-climate wines. Vines were lovingly planted in this stunning scene and so began the Bald Hills story.
Aged with care and craft
Crafted from hand-picked premium fruit parcels our Central Otago wines are a true representation of our boutique Bannockburn vineyard.
Our Pinot Noir is lovingly aged in French oak barriques.

Bald Hills 'Friends and Lovers' Rosé 2019 (93 Points)... Youthful, ripe and very alluring scents of light red cherry and strawberry, roses and red apple, peach tea and a touch of red quince. On the palate - delicious! Everything a Rosé wine should be with a juicy fleshy texture, ripe light red fruit flavours plus something that makes it special - such as the peach tea and quince mentioned above, a great acid-line and finish that demands you take another sip.

Bald Hills Single Vineyard Pinot Noir 2016... Maturing very gracefully, this fragrant, deep ruby, elegant red was hand-picked and matured for a year in French oak barriques (33% new). Still unfolding, it is full-bodied and vibrantly fruity, with ripe cherry, plum and spice flavours, nutty, savoury notes adding complexity, fresh acidity and good tannin backbone.

Bald Hills 'Last Light' Riesling 2017... It is instantly appealing on the nose showing candid orange, lemon peel, apple and subtle toasty notes. The palate displays excellent fruit intensity and vibrancy, wonderfully supported by subtle sweetness and refreshing acidity. Up front and delicious. Style: Off-dry. At its best: now to 2025.
