At the heart of TerraVin is a dedication to making exceptional Marlborough Pinot Noir from superbly situated hillside vineyards. Terra being Latin for Earth, the name reflects a deep emphasis on terroir. Under the watchful eye of pioneering viticulturist Mike Eaton, TerraVin draws fruit from three close-planted sites located in Marlborough. These hillside vineyards are afforded their true expression through low yields, gentle handling, and winemaker Gordon Ritchie’s intuitive approach.
