Gravity Cellars
Gravity Cellars. Wines that are next level.
Gravity Cellars is a four-level gravity-fed winery that is literally connected to the land. Nestled in the upper Moutere Hills, it offers panoramic views of Tasman Bay, Nelson, Mt Arthur, and the Southern Alps.
As gravity guides the wine down four levels, spanning over 18 metres, this technique minimises oxygen exposure in the final wine, ensuring the preservation of its aromatics and flavours. The philosophy that “wine is alive” resonates with us as we remove pumps from the winemaking process to enhance the natural purity of the grapes, allowing an authentic expression of the terroir.
