Palliser Wine

For over 30 years, Palliser has connected people through our crafted Martinborough wines that speak of site, season and soul.
(1)

We focus on Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays, still and sparkling, organic and on their way to being organic. The weathered and wild Cape Palliser (or Mātakitaki-a-Kupe). The southernmost point of the North Island, on the remote Wairarapa coast of New Zealand. It’s where the Ruamahanga River, the life source of our vineyard land meets the sea, and from where our weather patterns unfurl. From Kupe to Co

ok, Palliser Bay has long been revered by explorers and pioneers in seeking out a new world. Our name reflects the bold courage and pioneering spirit of those explorers; the connection between people, and the land, river and sea of our Martinborough home; and the wild weather that challenges us to craft wines and experiences of exceptional quality.

PEOPLE OF PALLISER | Belen

Fresh from being named one of New Zealand's top wine professionals, we're incredibly proud to celebrate Belen, who last night was named in the top 50 of the Champagne Louis Roederer Top 100 Sommeliers New Zealand 2026.

Alongside her passion for wine, Belen brings passion, humour, care, warmth, curiosity and a genuine gift for hospitality to every guest experience at Palliser. Here's more of what makes our amazing Belen tick!
---
What's your favourite Palliser wine + film pairing?
Palliser Sauvignon Blanc + Moana. Bright, energetic, a little wild, and impossible not to smile at.
---
Greatest wine myth you'd like to debunk?
That you need to know a lot of technical stuff about wine to enjoy wine - you don't. If it makes you smile, you're already doing it right.
---
Best piece of wine career advice you've received?
People might forget what wine you poured them, or what vintage it was, but they'll always remember how you made them feel.
---
If you weren't working in the wine industry, what would you be doing?
Professional aquarium mermaid. Swimming with fish and chatting to kids through the glass in sign language. If that job exists in New Zealand, Pip, please don't be surprised when I ask for school holiday leave!!
---
Ultimate wine experience on your bucket list?
Eight years ago, I said my dream wine destination was New Zealand. Today I work at a Martinborough winery, so I'd say I'm ticking off my bucket list dreams pretty well.
---
If you could have dinner with anyone, living or dead, who would it be?
Walt Disney. I'd love to know how many ideas sounded completely ridiculous before they became brilliant.
---
Brava, Belen! To be recognised among New Zealand's Top 50 Sommeliers is an incredible achievement, and a reflection of the joy, knowledge and hospitality you bring to Palliser every day. We're so proud to have you on the team. And congrats to all those acknowledged in the Top 100 Sommeliers NZ 2026.

Keep an eye on our socials for more on the people who make Palliser what it is.

International Pinot Noir Day deserves a soundtrack.

We've curated a playlist of timeless tracks to accompany a glass of Palliser Pinot Noir. Think late afternoons that turn into nights, shared plates, long conversations, fire light, and songs that never go out of style.

Pour a glass, press play, and settle in this Pinot Noir day.

The Estate Club is more than a wine subscription. You're joining a community of wine and culture enthusiasts, with opportunites to join special events, and purchase rare wines.

JOIN: joining is easy - simply choose 12 or 24 bottles, delivered quarterly or biannually, with 20% off Cellar Door pricing, amongst other benefits.

SPECIAL EVENTS: members receive priority access to special events, including the Palliser Symphonic Feast. Tickets go on sale next week, and Club members get preferential pricing, so now is the best time to join.

Our first limited release - Arohanui Pinot Noir 2024, is a rare, single-barrel release born from love and creativity, feauturing an artwork by celebrated NZ artist, the late Ralph Hotere. Part art, part wine, it began through a connection between Hotere and Palliser’s founding managing director, Richard Riddiford. We were honoured to bring the Arohanui story to life once more, exclusively for Club members.
