About Vavasour Wines

Established in 1986, Vavasour was the first winery to plant vines in the Awatere Valley, a cooler, more rugged sub-region of Marlborough. The winery's pioneering spirit and commitment to quality have established Vavasour as a benchmark producer of premium New Zealand wines. The Awatere Valley's unique terroir, characterised by stony soils, cool temperatures, and strong winds, produces wines with exceptional intensity, purity, and distinctive mineral character.

Wine Varieties Available:

• Sauvignon Blanc: Vibrant, intense whites with citrus, gooseberry, and herbaceous notes, showcasing the Awatere Valley's distinctive minerality
• Pinot Noir: Elegant, complex reds with cherry, spice, and earthy undertones from cool-climate fruit
• Chardonnay: Refined whites with stone fruit, citrus, and subtle oak integration
• Pinot Gris: Textural, fruit-forward whites with excellent balance
• Riesling: Crisp, aromatic whites with lime, apple, and mineral notes
• Reserve Selections: Premium single-vineyard wines showcasing exceptional sites

The Awatere Valley Difference

The Awatere Valley, located in the southern part of Marlborough, is New Zealand's coolest and most exposed wine region. The valley's stony, free-draining soils, cool maritime climate, and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts create ideal conditions for producing wines with remarkable concentration, natural acidity, and distinctive regional character. Vavasour's wines express the raw beauty and intensity of this unique terroir.
