Growing Legacy: Pegasus Bay
Pegasus Bay’s Ed Donaldson reflects on 40 years of North Canterbury winemaking and a family legacy that shaped one of New Zealand’s most iconic wineries.
Sixty years after a wine book changed Ivan and Chris Donaldson’s medical careers, 50 years after they pioneered winegrowing in North Canterbury, and 40 years after they planted Pegasus Bay, Ed Donaldson, the third of their four sons, talks of the privilege and passion of working in the family business.
I feel grateful for being here, and even more so for being here representing a family business that I believe in so passionately.
Ed Donaldson is currently traveling, having launched their 2015 aged-release wines in Seoul, which is their newest export market, making it the 45th country with distribution. His next stops include Brussels, and further destinations in Europe and the United Kingdom.
While it may sound glamorous, Ed admits it can also be incredibly tiring.
