Giesen Group Limited
Founded by brothers Theo, Alex, and Marcel in 1981, Giesen Wines has been an industry leader for four decades. With an uncompromising drive for quality and strong culture of innovation, the brothers’ investment in their people, vineyards and equipment has earned them a reputation as powerhouses in New Zealand wine. In 2017, Giesen Wines expanded to become the Giesen Group. This now incorporates several other well-known brands; Ara Wines champions Marlborough-centric wines (acquired 2016) while Konrad Wines (acquired 2020) specialise in championing the Waihopai Valley. As the portfolio continues to grow, the Giesen brothers have diversified. Their interest in beer saw the creation of Kaiser Bros Beer and partnership in the popular Riverside Market institution, Kaiser Brew Garden. Innovations in the up-and-coming seltzer category and spirit segment represent ongoing opportunities for the ambitious Giesen team. The family-owned company is one of New Zealand's top 10 producers by volume with distribution in over 40 countries. Giesen owns 13 vineyards throughout Marlborough and has longstanding relationships with over 50 of the region’s most respected grape growers.

From the highly-awarded premium Single Vineyard Selection, to the commercially successful Giesen Estate range, Giesen produces wine to be enjoyed at every occasion. While Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has been the backbone of Giesen's success worldwide, they are also known in New Zealand for their best-selling Riesling and sell-out launch of the world's first alcohol-removed Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.

Babich Wines Ltd
Babich Wines is an internationally renowned, family-owned New Zealand winemaker. Since 1916, every decision, action, challenge and triumph from generations of family winemaking has shaped who we are and what we stand for today. It’s in how we tend our vines, craft our wines, and approach life: with passion, purpose, and a healthy disregard for doing things the way they’ve always been done. From our diverse vineyards to your table, our wines offer a connection to New Zealand, the place we’ve called home for over a century. Because lasting character, like great wine, isn’t about following a recipe. It develops through time. Through taking chances. Through learning what rules to break, and which ones really matter. People thought our founder Josip Babich was crazy back in 1912, planting vines in remote New Zealand, then making wine the hard way. But vision, grit and ingenuity have always run deep here. Three generations later, they still do. So when you choose Babich, you’re not just tasting wine. You’re experiencing character that runs as deep as our roots in New Zealand soil. Built over the past 100 years, and ready for the next 100.

Allan Scott planted some of the region's first vineyards in the 1970s and has been a part of every vintage grown here since. In 1990, Allan and his wife Catherine founded Allan Scott Family Winemakers, one of the region's first independent wineries. Just as the name promises, it has always been a family endeavour, and now it has evolved into a true family calling. Allan and Cathy's children, son Josh and younger daughter Sara, have assumed full control of the company and lead the production, management, and development with a highly skilled operational team. The Scott family attributes its success to excellent vineyard sites, intricate knowledge of the terroir, superb conditions, and a passion to create wines that people love to drink and share, as much as they love making them.

Strange Nature Distilling
NATURE FLAVOURS THE STRANGE This innovative spin on a traditional gin goes against the grain and has been grown from grapes. That's right - not flavoured, but grown! We're proud to present Strange Nature: a premium New Zealand gin made from the spirit of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc and bearing all the quintessential flavours of its unique origins. RECENT AWARDS Innovation trophy at the New Zealand Spirit Award. Awarded a Gold Medal at the international Gin Masters competition held in London. Received a special commendation for design and packaging at The Drinks Business Awards. HOW DOES IT TASTE? Aromatic and fruity, it's part tropical and zesty, part herbaceous. Enjoy sweet notes and savoury hits in every sip. Sweet: Fresh Pineapple, Candied Grapefruit, A Touch Of Kaffir Lime, And Blood Orange. Savoury: Piney Juniper, Blackcurrant Leaf, And Fresh Green Pepper. ONE BOTANICAL. THAT'S IT. The only botanical we use is the one that defines gin - Juniper. The rest of our stunning flavour and aroma profile comes from our unique base spirit - the spirit of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. HONEST ORI-GINS Some of our gin started life more than 15 years ago, when our grapevines took root in the ground. Over those 15 years, these vines have taken on the distinctive characteristics of their environment - absorbed through the soil and sun, and expressed each year in the fruit that is harvested to make wine. REMAKING THE MOULD When our friends at Giesen Wines began making alcohol-removed wine, they used these same grapes. Which gave us an idea. What if we could use the pure white spirit extracted from wine, to craft a unique, varietally expressive gin? NORMAL IS NOTHING After 18 months of trials, we settled on double distillation with juniper as an unexpectedly perfect marriage with our natural Sauvignon Blanc grape spirit. The proof is in the drinking - trust us, this flavour is as unforgettable as it is unique.
