Dry River

In 1979 Neil and Dawn McCallum planted a vineyard a few kilometres from Dyerville in a very dry, gravely and free-draining area now called the 'Martinborough Terrace' and they took the name Dry River for the vineyard and wines in what was to become another chapter of Martinborough's farming history. Their dream was to produce individual, high quality regional wines which faithfully reflect the 'terroir', vintage and are suitable for cellaring.

They since became one of New Zealand's iconic wineries, with a global reputation for outstanding Pinot Noir, Syrah and Chardonnay plus some brilliant aromatic whites.
