Canterbury Pinot Noir and Riesling from New Zealand's cool South Island.

Waipara Springs produces wines from Canterbury in New Zealand's South Island, a region defined by cool-climate precision and mineral intensity. The winery's portfolio centers on two varieties well-suited to the area's conditions: Pinot Noir and Riesling. The Reserve Premo Pinot Noir, rated 93.0 by prestige critics including Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Decanter, represents the winery's expression of the varietal's darker fruit and structural complexity. Riesling appears across two tiers—the Reserve Premo bottling (90.0 rating) and a core Riesling (88.4 rating)—both capturing the aromatic and mineral character the region is capable of achieving. Wine Enthusiast and Falstaff have also assessed the winery's output, reflecting its profile among international critics.
