Hells Gate (Marlborough)


Situated on the sunny southern side of Marlborough's Wairau Valley, Sacred Hill’s 60 hectare Hells Gate Vineyard is planted in Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Noir.

The vineyard’s name is derived from a dramatically eerie gorge, which is located in the headwaters of the Wairau River. 

The vineyard itself is situated on the banks of the Omaka River on a stony and sunny river terrace. 

The cool night time temperatures received in this river valley ensure that the characteristic Marlborough fruit flavours are retained as the grapes ripen in the sunny Marlborough climate. 

This strategically important vineyard provides Sacred Hill with a long term premium grape supply from Marlborough.
