Discover the intensity of wild coast-grown wines, Marlborough New Zealand
OUR FEATURED WINE
Our Coastal Awatere
Marlborough Estate
Windier
The maritime influence of the nearby Pacific Ocean keeps our vines fresher with lower disease pressure.
Sunnier
Longer sunshine hours ensure optimum levels of ripeness, higher sugar levels and therefore intensity of fruit purity.
Wilder
These wild conditions ensure our vine roots grow deeper into the steep terraces, seeking water & nutrients to produce smaller, more concentrated berries – creating wines with minerality and elegant intensity.
Cooler
With the Pacific Ocean just a few miles away, our Estate enjoys a cool climate and a long growing season which results in more intense flavors in our fruit.
