World class, sustainable and delicious – we’ll drink to that!
Great wine stories start with the land. New Zealand offers young soils, dramatic landscapes – from the subtropical north to the mountainous south – and a maritime climate with long sunshine hours and nightly sea breezes. The proximity of New Zealand vineyards to the ocean has a pronounced effect on the character of our wines. Combined, these elements produce a diverse array of distinctive, high-quality wines that develop pure, intense varietal flavours.
Sauvignon blanc was the first wine to put New Zealand on the map, and it has developed a cult following with millions around the globe. The world's love for New Zealand wine continues to grow as wine lovers discover the range of varieties on offer, including our expressive pinot noir, refined chardonnay, and refreshing pinot gris and rosé.
New Zealand winegrowers tread lightly on the land, letting what's good remain at its very best. Ninety-six percent of our vineyard area is certified sustainable by Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand, and a growing number of vineyards have achieved organic or carbon neutral status, too.
