Dog Point Vineyard

We had a wonderful tasting at Dog Point. We have a couple of their wines in San Francisco and loved them, so we emailed Dog Point and they got right back to us with their availability for a tasting and brief tour. Everyone was so lovely and down to earth and inviting, and the wines we tasted were even better than the ones we can get in the US. We went to other wineries too and they all said that Dog Point is one of the best in the area!!

We had a fantastic experience at Dog Point Winery! When we arrived on Wednesday, we learned that tastings are by appointment at 11 AM, so we booked for the following morning – and it was well worth it. While they focus on just four wines, each one is crafted beautifully. Winston was an absolute gem, taking us up into the vineyards to show where they grow their different grape varieties. His knowledge and passion made the visit even more special. Our favorites were the special Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir—both exceptional! Dog Point is definitely a winery to remember. Thanks for making our visit so enjoyable! Jamie & Becs

Dog point was our favorite wine tasting experience in all of New Zealand. Winston hosted us and was warm, friendly, and provided wonderful insight into the farming practices that go into the wine. The wines themselves were also delicious and he even had us taste a 2011 Sauvignon blanc! He also brought us into the vineyard. Highly recommend booking a tasting with them!

Excellent! Greetings from Hungary! 🍷

Amazing wines, everyone knows Dog point wines never get wrong, especially their Section 94! Staff members are friendly and helpful. I told them my parents don't speak English and can we have the tour in slow pace. They even arrange a separate tour for us and get their vine manager Mr. Guo who can speak Cantonese to introduce to us. Unfortunately, we can only speak Mandarin, so translation is needed🤣 He knows so well about the vineyards and he is truely love his job and Dog Point. My parents are very pleased with the whole tour. Highly recommend!!!

Dog Point is spot on! Delicious, low-key wine tasting where the story makes the wine even better! You have to make an appointment before coming here to taste, but it's worth it! Tasting is free and you can purchase the wines afterward (SB > $30, Section 94 > $50, Chardonnay > $50 & PN > $60 + number of cellar editions available only there, including Section 94 from 2011)

The best wine tasting (of many) we did in Malborough! An interesting and personal story with one of the owners, Matt, at the table. For dessert we also got a nice tour of the vineyards. The 4 wines themselves are also fantastic, definitely recommend picking up a few bottles afterwards!

Great Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Must schedule an appointment, but they are easy to work with. Sampled current releases and some library releases, which was awesome to see how things age. A home run!
