Inspired by the traditions of the old world, we are devoted winegrowers of the new world. The name Devotus is Latin, and refers to the devotion we have for Pinot Noir. Our small 3 hectare family owned and operated vineyard is located within the heart of the Martinborough Terrace, New Zealand. The vines are old and deep-rooted, being some of the earliest planted Pinot Noir vines in New Zealand. All
the work in the organic vineyard is done by hand. We cultivate our non-irrigated old vines and coax them into growing very low yields of highly concentrated fruit. The vinification process is performed with a non-interventionist mindset, working with wild yeasts, no or low sulphur additions, and with no fining or filtering.
