Nestled in the picturesque foothills of New Zealand's Central Otago, Burn Cottage epitomizes the essence of family-owned, biodynamic viticulture across its pristine 10-hectare vineyard. Under the guidance of acclaimed consultant Ted Lemon from Littorai, the inaugural plantings in 2003 introduced Pinot Noir, alongside exquisite additions of Riesling and Gruner Veltliner. Embracing a holistic approach to land management, the estate harmoniously integrates cattle, chickens, bees, and indigenous flora to foster an optimal environment for grape cultivation.

The Moonlight Race, a testament to Burn Cottage's artisanal craft, blends fruit sourced from three meticulously tended sites: the esteemed Burn Cottage Vineyard in Lowburn, alongside the Sauvage and Luna Vineyards in Bannockburn. Handpicked grapes undergo a 17-day fermentation, including 7% whole bunches, before gracefully maturing in French oak barrels, 22% of which are new, resulting in a wine of sublime complexity and finesse.
