Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of wines are Chard Farm known for?
Chard Farm is best known for its exceptional Pinot Noir, widely regarded as among the finest expressions of Central Otago’s cool-climate winemaking. The estate produces several distinctive Pinot Noir labels, each representing specific vineyard sites and terroirs, with flavours ranging from bright red cherry and raspberry to deeper, more savoury and spicy tones. Beyond Pinot Noir, Chard Farm is also acclaimed for its Riesling, Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay, all of which showcase purity, minerality, and precision. The whites are aromatic, textural, and beautifully balanced, reflecting both varietal integrity and regional vibrancy. Each wine is crafted with minimal intervention to preserve natural expression. This combination of craftsmanship, character, and regional authenticity makes Chard Farm a true benchmark for New Zealand cool-climate wines.

Where are Chard Farm wines made?
Chard Farm wines are made in Central Otago, New Zealand’s southernmost wine region, famed for its dramatic mountain landscapes and ideal cool-climate growing conditions. The vineyards are planted on steep, schist-based slopes above the Kawarau River, where long sunshine hours, cool nights, and low rainfall create perfect conditions for slow ripening and flavour development. This environment produces wines of remarkable intensity, balance, and structure. Sustainable farming practices and meticulous vineyard management are central to Chard Farm’s approach, ensuring that each block reflects the purity of its site. In the winery, traditional techniques such as small-batch fermentation and gentle pressing preserve the fruit’s integrity. The result is a portfolio of wines that express Central Otago’s rugged beauty and natural elegance.

What are the best Chard Farm wines?
The best Chard Farm wines are those that showcase the extraordinary potential of Central Otago’s terroir, particularly the estate’s world-class Pinot Noirs. The Chard Farm River Run Pinot Noir is a flagship, offering bright red berry fruit, spice, and silky texture with excellent balance and approachability. The Viper and Tiger single-vineyard Pinot Noirs are highly regarded for their complexity, depth, and ageing potential. Among the whites, the Chard Farm Riesling impresses with citrus and floral precision, while the Pinot Gris delivers texture and purity. Each wine exemplifies the winery’s attention to detail and sense of place, combining elegance, balance, and structure. These wines consistently rank among New Zealand’s best, making Chard Farm a benchmark producer for cool-climate excellence.

Are Chard Farm wines affordable?
Chard Farm wines offer excellent value for the exceptional craftsmanship and quality they represent. While the single-vineyard Pinot Noirs sit at a premium level, reflecting their small-scale production and exceptional terroir, the River Run range provides outstanding accessibility without compromising quality. These wines deliver purity, balance, and refinement that far exceed their price point. Chard Farm’s philosophy of sustainability and authenticity ensures that every bottle—whether entry-level or flagship—maintains the same meticulous attention to detail. This combination of quality and affordability has made Chard Farm a favourite among wine lovers seeking elegant, expressive Central Otago wines. Whether enjoyed casually or cellared for special occasions, Chard Farm consistently delivers wines that embody integrity, precision, and true value.
