Introducing
Origins
The beginning of something special
Welcome to Glenberley
Glenberley is a boutique vineyard nestled in the heart of North Canterbury, driven by our love of the land, its history, and a commitment to crafting exceptional wines.
We’re making out mark with our Origins Collection – our inaugural vintage that, like us, is genuine and unpretentious. Being a small-scale producer keeps us grounded – we let our wines speak for themselves.
Origins Collection
Every great wine starts with a single vintage. For Glenberley, that moment is now.
Our Origins Collection marks the start of our winemaking journey on this historic North Canterbury land.
Three wines –Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Pinot Gris – are currently resting in bottle, quietly developing the character that will define them. By mid-2026, they’ll be joined by Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, completing our inaugural collection.
Follow along as we share the progress, the seasons, and the moments that matter.
Riesling 2025
We’re delighted to introduce you the newest addition to our Origins Collection.
Our Riesling captures everything we love about this region – precision, elegance, and character shaped by ancient soils. Currently in bottle, finding its voice. Available from mid-2026.
Sauvignon Blanc 2025
Meet our first born – harvested from organically farmed North Canterbury vines, our Sauvignon Blanc marks the beginning of our Origins Collection journey. Now resting in bottle, developing quietly, waiting for mid-2026.
Pinot Gris 2025
There’s something special about Pinot Gris grown on North Canterbury’s limestone soils. Our region has built a deserved reputation, and we’re honoured to be part of continuing it.
A land coming back to life
This isn’t just about making wine. It’s about regenerating premium North Canterbury land and bringing it back to the thriving, productive place it once was in its 1800s heyday as Glenmark Station.
Every vine we plant, every sustainable practice we implement, is part of a bigger story – one of restoration, community, and creating something that builds on our region’s incredible reputation.

What makes North Canterbury special
It starts beneath our feet. Our vineyard sits on ancient limestone and clay soils that give our wines their distinctive mineral backbone. The region’s limestone-rich terrain creates natural water stress for vines, forcing roots to dig deeper and ultimately producing more complex flavours.
Our vineyards are sheltered from excessive rainfall by the Southern Alps. When it’s pouring on the West Coast, our North Canterbury vines enjoy dry conditions perfect for consistent ripening.
As our young vines develop in this special place, we’re fascinated watching them adapt to their environment – each growing season bringing us closer to expressing this unique terroir in our wines.
Cellar door coming soon
We’re excited to announce that our cellar door will be opening mid-2026. This will be your chance to taste our wines in the heart of where they’re made, surrounded by the vineyards and the stunning North Canterbury landscape that shapes every bottle.
Stay tuned for updates as we get closer to opening – we can’t wait to welcome you to Glenberley and share our passion for this special place and the exceptional wines it produces.
