In 1984 we left the Netherlands with two backpacks, ready to discover the world, eventually arriving as immigrants in New Zealand. We established a number of businesses in various industries. During
those years we followed the development of the NZ wine industry and dreamt of one day being part of this.
Wine has been a passion since our uni days. After studying viticulture in 1999, we purchased a 23ha block in 2012, in the Alexandra Basin, Central Otago. Alexandra is a harsh environment, with extremes in the day and night temperatures, creating beautiful flavours. Our grapes are grown following NZ Sustainable Winegrowing principles.
In between the vines we noticed several pairs of
spur winged plovers, and decided they were to be involved in the naming of our wine.

The Pinot Gris was harvested on the 30th April 2014. We created an easy drinking wine with fruit flavours of apricots, peach and pineapple. Nicely chilled this wine will suit a large range of food styles, but is very well enjoyed on its own.

We harvested the Gewurztraminer on the 17th of April 2014. Providing lovely fruit flavours and floral aromas, this balanced, off dry wine can be enjoyed on its own, but would also suit a range of food styles including Asian dishes.
