GRASSHOPPER ROCK

Grasshopper Rock is a boutique winery located in Central Otago, New Zealand, one of the world’s premier regions for Pinot Noir. Situated in the Alexandra sub-region, the estate is known for producing small-batch wines that highlight precision, balance, and a strong sense of place.

Central Otago benefits from a cool continental climate with warm days, cool nights, and low rainfall, allowing grapes to ripen slowly while retaining natural acidity. The region’s schist-based soils and high-altitude vineyards contribute to wines with concentration, minerality, and structure.

Grasshopper Rock focuses primarily on Pinot Noir, crafting wines that are elegant and expressive, with layers of red and dark fruit, floral notes, and fine tannins. The winery emphasizes minimal intervention and careful vineyard management to ensure purity and terroir expression in every vintage.

As a boutique producer in Central Otago, Grasshopper Rock offers premium, terroir-driven wines that reflect the distinctive character and quality of New Zealand Pinot Noir.
