Out On A Limb
Out on a Limb is a small family vineyard in the Great Southern, known for handcrafted wines with a strong sense of place and a slightly more personal, small-batch feel. Based in Napier, the label has built a following for wines that feel thoughtful, expressive and closely connected to the people behind them.
About Out on a Limb
Out on a Limb was established in 2013 by Ben Carmody, with Dee Goodgame joining shortly after. From the beginning, the label has had a family-run, hands-on identity, and that sense of involvement still comes through clearly in the wines.
There is a personal quality to Out on a Limb that makes it stand out. Rather than feeling broad or highly commercial, the winery feels focused, intimate and genuinely tied to the people who grow and make the wines.

A Great Southern vineyard with a small-batch focus
Based in Napier in the Great Southern, Out on a Limb works on a scale that allows for a more detailed and hands-on approach. The wines have become especially associated with Pinot Noir, and that cooler-climate direction suits the label well, giving the range freshness, detail and a sense of elegance.
The overall style feels considered and site-aware, with wines that show flavour and character without losing balance. That small-batch focus is a big part of the appeal, especially for customers who enjoy producers that feel a little more individual and less conventional.
A label shaped by experience and curiosity
Ben Carmody brings long industry experience to Out on a Limb, and that depth gives the label confidence. The wines do not feel forced or overworked. Instead, they feel like the work of someone with a clear understanding of vineyard character and a preference for letting that speak naturally.
That combination of experience, restraint and a small family scale gives Out on a Limb a style that feels genuine. It is a winery that invites discovery, especially for customers who enjoy Great Southern wines with personality and a slightly more under-the-radar feel.
