The Landing

The Landing is an award-winning, single-estate winery located on a heritage coastal property in the Bay of Islands, New Zealand. Since planting its first Syrah and Chardonnay vines in 2007, The Landing has built a reputation for producing bold, complex, and sustainably crafted wines that capture the essence of its unique terroir. The winery’s estate spans 1,000 sun-drenched acres on a northern peninsula, featuring ancient clay and sandstone soils, a sheltered coastal microclimate, and panoramic sea views, providing the ideal conditions for premium grape cultivation.

The Landing’s winemaking philosophy centers on estate-grown fruit, carefully nurtured to optimal ripeness and hand-harvested by a dedicated team at the on-site winery. Over the years, The Landing has expanded its varietals to include Pinot Gris, Sangiovese, Montepulciano, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, alongside Chardonnay, Syrah, Rosé, and Port. Each wine is crafted to showcase vibrant fruit flavors, complex mineral notes, and the distinctive character of the Bay of Islands’ coastal terroir.

The winery is distinguished not only by its exceptional wines but also by its commitment to sustainability. Certified Carbonzero by Toitū Envirocare in 2021, The Landing offsets its greenhouse gas emissions through extensive native forest regeneration, planting over two million trees, and protecting wildlife habitats and culturally significant sites. This dedication ensures that both the vineyard and its environment thrive for generations to come.

The Landing Wines offers three tiers: the approachable Boathouse range, the signature Landing range, and the premium Madre range, reserved for the finest vintages. What sets The Landing apart from competitors is its deep connection to place, combining a rare coastal climate, unique soils, and meticulous viticulture to produce wines that are elegant, expressive, and unmistakably New Zealand. Recognized internationally for quality and sustainability, The Landing Wines continues to captivate wine lovers with its single-estate excellence and authentic sense of place.
