For many people, Marlborough, located at the top of the North Island, IS New Zealand. After all, it was Marlborough, and its acclaimed Sauvignon Blanc, that brought New Zealand to the wine world’s attention. But although Sauvignon Blanc remains the area’s flagship, Marlborough’s diverse meso-climates and sub-regions also offer pure, intensely flavoured Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and aromatic whites.
Growing up in Australia, Chris’ interest in wine first stemmed from his father – an avid wine lover himself, who shared the stories and mystiques of the world of wine with his son. This initial interest soon turned into a passion, which led Chris to pursue a career in the industry with the aim of crafting wines which could be enjoyed the world over.
After completing an Oenology degree at Roseworthy College in Adelaide, Chris worked in vineyards across Western Australia before relocating to New Zealand in 2003.
