The Wine
Meet the wines of Dog Point – an outstanding, award winning range of just four wines from New Zealand's Marlborough region. In 2004 Ivan Sutherland and James Sealy decided to take the skills they’d learnt as viticulturalist and winemaker at Cloudy Bay and set up on their own. They had a head start as Ivan had planted vineyards in Marlborough in the 1970s, and in just 12 years their wine label has become iconic. Dog Point remains very much owned by the two families – a boutique winery, producing outstanding quality as naturally as possible. Using indigenous yeasts from hand picked fruit, this wine is meticulously made, with fermentation and ageing for 18 months in French oak. Open early, let it breathe, and serve with creamy chicken or fish.
