Lawson's Dry Hills Winery combines 30 years of experience with an inquisitive spirit, resulting in the perfect balance of knowledge and innovation. These two traits can be found in every bottle of Lawson's Dry Hills wine - wonderful, high-quality fruit from carefully farmed vineyards using modern winemaking techniques is transformed into attractive, drinkable wines. The company's first vineyard was planted in 1982 by Ross and Barbara Lawson, who launched Lawson's Dry Hills ten years later in 1992. Today the company's range includes wines from Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir and Gewürztraminer, grown in the Wairau, Waihopai, Omaka and Awatera valleys. These different regions and carefully selected vineyard sites have different characteristics due to different soils and microclimates, which provide many possibilities when it comes to creating the Lawson style.
