Where are Urlar wines made?

This area, which is part of the larger Wellington wine region, benefits from a cool, dry climate that is ideal for growing premium grape varieties such as Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling. The vineyards are situated on free-draining, alluvial soils that contribute to the complexity and minerality of the wines. The proximity to the Tararua Ranges provides shelter from harsh weather, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and develop concentrated flavours. Urlar’s commitment to organic and biodynamic farming ensures that the land is nurtured and preserved, resulting in wines that are a true reflection of the Wairarapa terroir. These sustainable practices also contribute to the purity and balance of the wines, with minimal intervention in both the vineyard and winery.
