Tinpot Hut

Marlborough Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand's South Island.

Tinpot Hut produces wines from Marlborough, New Zealand's most prominent wine region on the South Island. The winery focuses on three core varieties: Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. Marlborough's cool climate and distinctive terroir shape these expressions—the region's Sauvignon Blancs are characteristically herbaceous and mineral-driven, while Pinot Noirs benefit from long ripening seasons that build complexity and structure. Riesling thrives in the region's conditions, developing both aromatic intensity and balance. Tinpot Hut's Riesling and Pinot Noir have each achieved an average prestige rating of 88+, with the Sauvignon Blanc close behind at 87.7. The wines have been assessed by major critics including Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, and Falstaff. The winery's portfolio reflects the technical precision and fruit quality that define contemporary Marlborough production.
