The Pinot Noir South Valley of Nautilus Estate comes from the renowned Marlborough wine region, New Zealand, where the cool and breezy climate, combined with well-drained soils, gives the grapes a perfect balance between acidity and aromatic ripeness.

This wine is a tribute to the Pinot Noir grape, meticulously cultivated in vineyards located in the South Valley, an ideal area to express the fine and seductive character of the Pinot Noir. The aging takes place in French oak barrels, which impart a soft structure and delicate aromas of spices and vanilla without overpowering the fruity notes.

In the glass, it presents a bright ruby color and offers an elegant bouquet of red cherries, wild strawberries, and light floral nuances, accompanied by an earthy undertone typical of the terroir. The sip is fresh, soft, and harmonious, with a long persistence and velvety tannins. Perfect paired with white meats, mushroom-based dishes, or soft cheeses, the Pinot Noir South Valley of Nautilus Estate is a refined and vibrant expression of New Zealand Pinot Noir.

Winery history
Nautilus Estate began producing wine in the 1980s and released its first Sauvignon Blanc in 1985. Over time the estate — associated with the Hill‑Smith family — has expanded its presence across several parcels in Marlborough, developing a range that includes traditional-method sparkling wines and a Pinot Noir program with a dedicated cellar for the gentle handling of the grapes.
Production philosophy
The wines are inspired by the form and balance of the nautilus shell: the goal is to achieve precision, structure and texture, with an emphasis on expressive, balanced wines that pair well with food.
Terroir and vineyards
Production comes from several vineyards in Marlborough, distributed across the Wairau Valley, the Southern Valleys and the Awatere area. Among the vineyards owned or managed are Renwick, Opawa, Kaituna, Lanark Lane, Korohi and Clay Hills. Individual vineyards provide distinct components for the brand's blends and varietal ranges.
Awards and recognitions
High industry ratings. In 2025 the winemaker Clive Jones was named a New Zealand Winegrowers Fellow; the winery regularly receives positive reviews from international publications and distributors.
