🔗 www.carrick.co.nz It is one thing to talk green but it is another to build a successful business on the basis of sustainability, to a point where it becomes sought by investors. The ink on the carton is environmentally friendly to the point that it would have no adverse effects should it reach any water ways. Our bottles are the lightest the New Zealand industry can produce, with 80% of each bottle coming from NZ recycled glass. We think of our compost as we think of our own bodies, in that we only consume products on the premises that are good for its health. From the soap we use in the bathrooms that is transferred onto the handtowels, to the paper that is shredded in the office, along with the grape skins and green material that all make their way to the compost heap, we are conscious of the fact that you are what you eat. For Carrick the word sustainable has more meaning than a wine descriptor.

One wine. Five courses. An evening worth lingering over.

Join us at Carrick for a special dinner celebrating the release of Excelsior Pinot Noir 2022 — our flagship Pinot Noir and one of the most anticipated wines from our cellar.

Over five courses, discover the new vintage alongside a selection of Carrick wines, with Winemaker Rosie Jaffe-Menzies guiding you through the wines, the season and the story behind Excelsior.

We’ll also be joined by John Toomer, father of New Zealand artist Alice Toomer, whose painting 'Dozen Oysters' features on the 2022 Excelsior label. With Alice currently based in London, John will join us on her behalf to share more about Alice, the artwork and the story behind the piece — bringing another layer to an evening where wine and art come together.

A beautiful table, exceptional Pinot and an evening of stories in Bannockburn. We’d love you to join us.

It’s Organic Wine Week 🌿

Carrick has been certified organic since 2008, with every bottle beginning right here in our vineyard in Bannockburn.

For us, organic winegrowing is about caring for the land, working with nature and letting our place speak through the wines we make.

So, what organic wines will be in your glass this week? 🍷

Four organic wines. Four organic pairings. One week to enjoy them. 🌿🍷

To celebrate Organic Wine Week, we’ve created a special tasting flight showcasing four Carrick wines, each matched with a light bite crafted by our chefs using organic ingredients.

From Sauvignon Blanc with leek, rocket & semi-dried tomato frittata, through to Josephine Riesling with a blueberry & almond friand, each pairing is a little taste of what organic means at Carrick — from vineyard to kitchen.

We’ve been certified organic since 2008, guided by a simple belief that great wine starts in the vineyard and that caring for the land is part of making wines that truly reflect where they come from.

Available at Carrick for Organic Wine Week, 21–27 September.

A little love letter from Bannockburn.

Billet-Doux — quite literally, a love letter — is Pinot Noir made for lingering over. Grown on our single estate, hand-picked and shaped by the wild beauty of this place, it’s an intimate expression of the land we call home.

Pour a glass. Share it with someone you love. Or keep this particular love letter all to yourself.

Pruning is now done, and the timing feels just right.

Across the vineyard, the vines are still quietly holding onto winter, with no sign of budburst just yet. But elsewhere on the estate, spring is beginning to make itself known.

Emma, who works across both our vineyard and gardens, has been busy planting seed trays for our certified organic kitchen garden — the first small beginnings of what will find its way onto plates in the months ahead.

One season’s work draws to a close, just as another begins. 🌱

The sun is shining a little brighter at Carrick ☀️🌱

Just in time for spring, our new solar system is officially switched on and Carrick is now fully powered by solar energy.

As a certified organic vineyard, caring for the land has always been at the heart of what we do. Moving to solar is another significant step in that journey, allowing us to harness the Central Otago sunshine to power our winery, restaurant, cellar door and estate.

A pretty special milestone, and one we’re incredibly proud to share.

Here’s to longer days, warmer weather and a more sustainable future. 🌿
