Lake Road is a multi-generational, family-owned winery run by the Blampied family. Their involvement in viticulture and winemaking dates back to the first vines planted in 1975, and today, 3rd generation brothers Steven and Andrew Blampied lead the vineyard, winemaking, and sales operations.
Based on New Zealand’s easternmost edge, Lake Road’s vineyards are located across New Zealand, with some among the first in the world to see the sun each day. The abundant sunlight and coastal climate encourage early ripening, producing grapes with a rich tropical fruit, vibrant aromatics and exceptional flavour.
Lake Road produces vibrant, expressive wines that capture the energy and character of their vineyards. Renowned for their lively Sauvignon Blancs, elegant Pinot Noirs and aromatic Pinot Gris, their wines consistently receive acclaim from critics and wine enthusiasts worldwide.
