Mount Edward

Central Otago Pinot Noir and Riesling from New Zealand's cool south.

Mount Edward sits in Central Otago, New Zealand's southernmost wine region, where cool nights and intense sunlight forge wines of precision and depth. The winery's portfolio centers on Pinot Noir and Riesling—varieties that thrive in the region's continental climate. Muirkirk Vineyard Pinot Noir and Morrison Vineyard Riesling represent the core of the range, both rated highly by Decanter, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Falstaff. Pisa Terrace, the winery's flagship, has earned particular recognition from these same critics. Central Otago's demanding terroir—schist soils, diurnal temperature swings, and low rainfall—demands precision viticulture. Mount Edward's wines reflect the region's signature profile: Pinot Noir with structure and aromatic clarity, Riesling with mineral tension and balance.
