Appellation Marlborough Wine
Appellation Marlborough Wine — What does that actually even mean? As it turns out, it means a great deal to us at Huia Vineyards.
Inseparable Huia
In 2016 we commemorated 20 years of Marlborough's Huia Vineyards by working with celebrated New Zealand photographer Dr Fiona Pardington (Ngāi Tahu, Kāti Mamoe and Ngāti Kahungunu), Chevalier de l'Ordre Française des Arts et des Lettres, as she created an original work of a pair of Huia, an extinct native bird of Aotearoa New Zealand, to be used on limited edition magnums of Huia Millennial Brut 2000.
Savoury Pear, Fig and Cheese Tart — seasonal splendour by Cazador

MANA Winegrowers — earning our place.
If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. MANA Winegrowers is a collective of Marlborough organic winemakers determined to go far together.

The Sparkling Rosé
To celebrate the long-time partnership of Huia Vineyards and New Zealand fashion designer Kate Sylvester, we popped our first ever sparkling Rosé, the 2016 Limited Edition Estate Grown Sparkling Rosé Brut into a delicate modernist rose print from designer Kate Sylvester’s collection “Frances”.
collaboration with Kate
It was seven years ago that iconic New Zealand fashion house Kate Sylvester started pouring our organic wines crafted by Huia for their guests. Designer Kate sat down with Winemaker Claire over a glass or two at Seabreeze Café, Kate’s local, to talk about why their brands are working together and how this relationship came about.
