Experience the Distinctive Taste of with 10% OFF Any 2 bottles

Discover the unique flavours of New Zealand with every sip. From the lush vineyards of to the rolling hills of , New Zealand’s winemakers have earned a reputation for producing vibrant, expressive wines that stand out on any table. Whether you’re drawn to the crisp zing of or the silky depth of , there’s something here for every palate. Ready to explore what makes New Zealand wine so special? Let’s raise a glass and take your taste buds on a journey down under.

New Zealand’s wine regions extend 1,600km (1000 miles) from the sub-tropical Northland, down to Central Otago - home to some of the world’s most southerly vineyards. They benefit from the moderating effect of the maritime climate, as no vineyard is more than 130km (80 miles) from the ocean, long sunshine hours and nights cooled by sea breezes.

Most of the wine regions are found on the eastern coastlines of the North and South Islands, in the rain shadow of the mountains, each with its own unique soils and climatic conditions. Within these diverse regions, subregional characteristics shine through and wines are distinguished as being not just from a wine region, but from a subregion and a place.
