Astrolabe Province Marlborough Pinot Noir

Astrolabe is a Marlborough-based winery founded by Simon and Jane Waghorn, dedicated to expressing the distinct character of the region's different sub-zones through site-specific, minimal-intervention winemaking. Our vision is to let each vineyard site speak for itself, crafting wines that are honest, textural and true to place.

Our Astrolabe Province range celebrates the classic flavours of Marlborough as a whole, blending fruit from across the region's key sub-zones to create wines of great typicity and everyday elegance.
