Winery notes (2024 Vintage)
"The 2024 vintage was a dream vintage for the region; Helen Masters describes it as the best vintage she has seen in her 22 years as Ata Rangi Winemaker.What really set it apart was great canopy balance with a cool dry March that allowed for exceptional phenolic ripeness combined with bright crystalline acidity.

The nose combines notes of toasted fennel seeds, white cardamon, lemon pith and fresh biscuit. On the palate flavours of lemon grass, orange blossom and almond are carried by bright clear acidity.The acidity is held in place by fruit weight and fine phenolics.The palate finishes with a long delicious almost salty character which is a hallmark of this site.A wonderful combination of power, precision and elegance."

Rated Outstanding & 97/100 Cameron Douglas MS, March 2026 (2024 Vintage)
"A simply brilliant wine. Tasted over 4 days, a complex and enticing wine with layers of ripe fruits, a judicious and balanced measure of oak, layers of spice and complexity that are giving yet not dominant nor intense. Rather, an intriguing wine with a mineral and saline quality, flavours of grapefruit and apple, white fleshed stone fruits and complexities from lees and wood spice, earth-smoke of stone and clay. Excellent drinking from day of purchase through 2032+."

In Te Reo Māori, Ata Rangi means “dawn sky” or “new beginning,” a name that honours the land and reflects the winery's dedication to its craft. This small, family-owned organic winery in Martinborough, Aotearoa-New Zealand, focuses on creating wines that embody the essence of their place. Founded by Clive Paton in 1980, Ata Rangi has grown from its humble beginnings on a stony sheep paddock. Clive’s sister Alison and his partner Phyll Pattie soon joined him, and today, Alison oversees operations while Helen Masters crafts the wines, supported by vineyard manager Ian Ewart.

Ata Rangi's winemaking philosophy is hands-off and traditional, emphasising the natural expression of their terroir. They aim for balance, using whole bunch fermentation and barrel ageing to enhance vineyard characteristics. Each vintage uniquely reflects its growing conditions, with cooler years bringing herbal notes and warmer seasons offering fuller fruit aromas. Their minimalist approach avoids cultured yeast, enzymes, and fining products, ensuring authentic wines with depth, texture, and ageing potential.
