About McArthur Ridge Wines
McArthur Ridge has been crafting wines in New Zealand's Alexandra basin since 1870, when James McArthur transformed what was once desert into vineyard land using glacial-fed springs. Their cool-climate location is seriously prized for Pinot Noir, and honestly, that heritage dating back over 150 years speaks for itself.
