Wine list

Urlar Sauvignon Blanc

2022

Greeny straw in colour, with spice honey, floral notes and guava, passionfruit and elderflower on the palate.

Urlar Pinot Gris

2019

Green straw in colour. Savoury aromatics, oak spice honey with hay rich cream notes. Full mid palate, creaming soda, nougat and spice. Full entry finishes dry with a lingering impression of ripe pears and honey and butter on toast.

Urlar Pinot Noir

2021

Garnet Red, unfiltered. Laden with earthy spice aromas, bright red and dark fruits with a touch of red liquorice and floral notes. The wine has great fruit intensity while still showing classic Wairarapa savoury elements. Long fine tannins make the wine linger and imprint a sense of place.

Winemaker

Jannine spent some time working in high-end restaurants and for food importers in Australia and NZ. Given the opportunity in 2003 to work a harvest in Hawkes Bay she then became enticed with wine growing. Several years were spent working international harvests in Burgundy, California, South Africa and Oregon while working at Ata Rangi in Martinborough as Assistant Winemaker. She completed her Post Graduate in Oenology and then left to work in Burgundy for the season of 2012 at Thibault Liger-Beliar. On return she moved to the South Island and spent three years at Pegasus Bay before heading to Australia to gain knowledge on methode champenoise wine production at Deviation Road, and returned to NZ and the Wairarapa where in 2017 she joined the team at URLAR.

Jannine and her partner have a block of land which they intend to build on and have a permaculture-based farm off the grid. She is a firm supporter of organic and local foods, community and hunting for deer and pigs. She is dedicated to producing high quality wines for URLAR and committed to evolving the style as the vines age.

Vineyard

Our wine collection reflects the nature of our environment and includes harmonious aromatics; Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Gris and strapping, vibrant Pinot Noir.

Our 31-hectare single vineyard is located on ancient free-draining soils and our inter-row crop rotation maintains healthy soils full of life and biodiversity. Our seven year crop rotation maintains healthy soils and vines. Every seven years, one row in seven will be planted in a variety of plants and wild flowers. These flowers, such as buckwheat, lupins, stinging nettles, dandelions and yarrow provide crucial protection to the vineyard as they attract beneficial insects that will kill off unwanted pests and predators that can destroy the vines, leaves or roots.
