ROADIE MkIII Third time out. Two brothers. One wagon that refuses to die. We're back on the road. Central Otago's finest in the back of a '71 HT Holden Kingswood that's held together by rust, stubbornness, and blind optimism. Trade visits. Consumer tastings. Matt driving. James talking too much. Bringing proper Pinot to the people. No winery theatrics. Just good wine and honest conversation at whatever bar, bottle shop, or back deck will have us. Matt says he'll post updates. Matt is a liar. But we'll try. The old girl broke down in Wanganui on Roadie MkI. Could happen again. Probably will. That's half the fun. Follow along. Come find us. Drink something decent. 👆 Link in bio for the full tour schedule. . . . #DiceyRoadTrip #DiceyBros #CentralOtago #NZWine #PinotNoir #HoldenKingswood #RoadTrip #Aotearoa #WineTasting #DrinkLocal #Bannockburn #RollingDicey #MkIII
Nothing to see... 3 days of graft. 1062kms. 2 drivers. 22 hours of driving. Zero incidents. Not #dicey at all. No way. Dicey brothers on a mission to grab some much needed tanks for the winey. No dramas. Job done. All fingers intact. #alotdicey #jobdone #pinotnoir #mission
Spring was not kind. Wind. Rain. Chaos. Shoots grew wild. The shed got wrecked. Welcome to spring in Bannockburn. Flowering starts now. We need calm, we need warmth. We'll probably get neither. You can't choose this life because it's easy. Quality wine requires a struggle. We've had that in spades this year so far. #diceywines #centralotago #bannockburn #vineyardlife #nzwine #abitdicey
DECEMBER: BOOTS ON THE GROUND Roads. Winery. Repeat. Matt's been hammering the pavement, pushing wine to anyone with a pulse and a palate. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, that Chardonnays getting its final polish. Yeah, the new containers an eyesore - industrial chic wasn't the plan, but function trumps form when you're making the good stuff. It'll clean up nice. Trust the process. Today? South Island Wine and Food Festival. We're bringing Frose because frozen Rose on a hot day is the only religion that matters. Track us down. Say gidday. Drink something cold. #abitdicey #getdicey #frosé #rosé
ROSÉ AT THE BANNOCKBURN New rosé just landed at the Bannockburn Hotel. Anna, Andy, and their crew have got the goods—specially delivered, fresh as it gets. Get in there. Get it down your laughing gear before it's gone. DRINK IT WHILE IT'S THERE. #GetDicey #ABitDicey #BannockburnHotel #FreshRosé #CentralOtago #DiceyNZ
BOLLOCKS TO BLACK FRIDAY Black Friday is manufactured bullshit. While everyone's flogging discounted crap, we're going rogue. Central Otago is stunning and unforgiving. When things go sideways out there, it's COSAR who drops everything to haul your arse to safety. These volunteers don't get paid - they just show up. So skip the sales. Throw some coin at the people who'll come find you when the mountains get real. DONATE TO COSAR. REAL VALUE ISN'T 40% OFF. www.dicey.nz/product#/donate-to-cosar #bollockstoblackfriday #getdicey #supportCOSAR #abitdicey #skipthesales #diceynz
Spring threw us a curve ball. We're handling it. Dry winter. Then October hit us with fury - rain, wind that wouldn't quit. Bud burst came late - vines don't care about your schedule. Now it's warm. The growths aggressive. We just finished shoot thinning and wire lifting. Staying ahead of weeds. Spraying to keep disease off the fruit. This is the work. Not romantic. Not easy or fun. Just what Mother Nature demands if you want honest wine in a glass. Link in bio to taste the fruits of the labour. #getdicey #bannockburn #Central Otago #pinotnoir #winegrowing
Lars has brought the goods. The 2023 Dice Pinot Noir, straight out of Central Otago, New Zealand - has touched down in Systembolaget in Sweden. This isn't wine for whispering about, it's for pouring, sharing, arguing over, and spilling a little on your shirt. It's Pinot with backbone - wild, layered, and unapologetically itself. The locals know - this is the bottle you reach for when you want something delicious. Säljer som smör I solsken - grab some before they are gone! #getdicey #centralotagonz #nzwine #dicey#dicey
The Chaos Coordinator draws a strong line in the sand (or more accurately coffee grounds)... Sh*t just got real... Not sure the response was appreciated greatly #itsdiceyaroundhere

Sunday afternoon. Sydney's wine trade dragged their butts out on what should've been a day off. Why? To get their mitts on the juice that's the real deal - Central Otago's Pure Pours. No BS. No pretense, just good people showing up for the gear that matters. They came, they swirled, they got it. And that, friends, is bloody beautiful. Bonza indeed.
