Central to the success of Ager Sectus is our collection of superb vineyards. Spanning 360 hectares (870 acres), they are in the most renowned viticultural regions in New Zealand.
With more than 11,000 hectares (27,000 acres) under vine, Marlborough, at the northern tip of the South Island, is New Zealand’s largest and most internationally recognised appellation.
On the east coast of the North Island lies Hawkes Bay, one of the original viticutural regions of New Zealand, with a 130 year history of winemaking. Hawkes Bay now has more than 4,700 hectares (11,600 acres) of mature vineyard.
The Ager Sectus team has selected vineyard locations in these regions that ideally suit the grape varieties we have chosen to craft into fine wines. Our priority was to seek free-draining soils with low vigour in sun-drenched locations.
