“Hans Herzog is one of New Zealand’s most distinctive artisan wine estates, shaped by the uncompromising vision of vigneron and winemaker Hans Herzog, drawing on more than five decades of experience at the highest level of winegrowing.

Established in 1994, the organically farmed single estate is devoted to crafting small-batch wines of precision, structure, and longevity. Each parcel of the vineyard is meticulously matched to its grape variety, allowing soil and site to define the character of every wine.

The remarkable diversity of plantings reflects a deliberate pursuit of excellence rather than scale, enabling each wine to be individually grown, vinified, and matured with exacting care.

Hans and Therese Herzog remain deeply hands-on, guiding every aspect of the estate with a holistic philosophy and an unwavering commitment to quality. Produced in very limited quantities, the wines are sought after by collectors and connoisseurs worldwide, and have quietly earned strong recognition from leading critics, including James Suckling.”
