Richmond Plains is an organic and biodynamic Nelson wine making pioneer producing New Zealand’s first Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from certified Organic and Biodynamic grapes. We also produce Pinot Gris, Riesling, Chardonnay, Rose, Syrah and Blanc de Noir – Pinot made as a white wine.
We believe in making great wines by working with nature in our vineyard environment. By using organic and biodynamic methods we can truly express the vineyard’s character or terroir in the wines.
Try our new and first ever Riesling. This is a gorgeous wine and my current favourite...“A youthful wine with a lovely perfumed bouquet displaying lemon/lime, floral and a touch of candied apple notes. The palate is intensely flavoured showing gentle sweetness and lush mouthfeel with the bright acidity providing excellent balance and harmony. The wine finishes long and delicious. 93 Points

“Richmond Plains Sauvignon Blanc is consistently attractive, weighty, full flavoured, ripely herbaceous and zingy”…
…“Reserve Pinot Noir is full of charm with fresh, smooth cherry - plum flavours.”
