Ata Rangi - Vineyard & Winery

Apr 12th, 2023

The Ata Rangi vineyard offers one of the best tasting experiences for wine buffs or beginners. Very informative in regard to the vineyard and region, and great introduction to each wine offered. The tasting room was beautiful and the wines were definitely special.

Due to the Gabriel cyclone, we were in a hurry to get back to Wellington and the staff was kind enough to accomodate us with an earlier private tasting. The wine was amazing, the place was very elegant and stylish. It was an amazing experience and I would recommend this place to any wine enthusiast. The person who gave us the tasting also gave us excellent tips for good restaurants in Wellington !

A highlight of any Self Drive Tour to Martinborough is a visit to Ata Rangi Wines. Make sure you call them early in the week to book a tasting on the weekend. The curated tastings are available at 11am and 2pm. There were some outstanding wines here, the best in their class being their 2021 Ptiki Chardonnay 98 pts A benchmark wine that perfectly captures place and season. 2022 Late Harvest White Blend 98 pts A stellar example of how winemakers adapt to different seasons, making the very best of botrytis in the Lismore Block. A very deft touch. Perfect palate, length and acidity. 2021 Crimson Pinot Noir 97 pts A crowd favourite and a personal favourite of mine, that pairs perfectly with Venison. These wines are not served with food during the curated tasting, but any Sommelier worth their salt will agree - that is where these wines excel. Thank you to Clive and the team at Ata Rangi. Kia kaha.

Excellent tasting session with a real expert, the opportunity to ask questions, and winemaker's notes. No charge for this, but you need to book ahead. All the wines we tasted were simply superb. We thought the best were their Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. We loved it!
