Wineries and Vineyards of the Waipara Region
Waipara is Canterbury’s most prominent and heavily planted sub-region. The region endures a lot of strong, hot north westerly winds in summer and cold southerly winds in winter but still manages to produce some of the country’s finest Pinot-Noir, Chardonnay and some intense aromatic Pinot Gris and Riesling.
Soils : Waipara has chalky loams often rich in limestone
Main Grape Varieties : Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris.
