Vin Burn Cottage

Burn Cottage is a 24ha integrated farm with around 11ha vineyards in the foothills of the Pisa range in Central Otago. The boutique winery has gained a cult status. The vineyard is owned by the Sauvage family which also owns the celebrated Koehler Ruprecht estate in the Pfalz region of Germany, as well as several fine wine importing and wholesaling companies in the United States. In 2002 husband and wife Marquis Sauvage and Dianne Sauvage fell in love with the extraordinary beauty of Central Otago and became even more impressed after tasting the region's wines.

Previously grazed by sheep, the first blocks were planted in 2003.With the help of global wine guru Ted Lemon of Littorai Wines in Sonoma County, Burn Cottage makes top Pinot Noirs and a blended white from Riesling and Grüner Veltliner. Ted Lemon was the first American ever hired to manage an estate in Burgundy, Domaine Guy Roulot in Meursault and he is well known in the whole world for his passionate devotion to producing terroir-driven wines.
