Mahi Wines
|
 |

The philosophy behind Mahi - One of the many things that we love about wine is that it is such a true reflection of its place. It is the way that is shows the differences between vineyards that was the inspiration for the start of Mahi. To make wines in as natural a way as possible from great vineyards is a constant enjoyment, and then to see these wines through to the bottle, watch them slowly evolve, and to enjoy them at the table with friends is incredibly satisfying.

Martinborough Vineyard
|
 |
 |
Martinborough has an interesting history going back to 1978 when a report,identifying the best areas in New Zealand to grow high quality classical grape varieties concluded that Martinborough had a climate close to Beaune in Burgundy and therfore would be suited to growing Burgundian style wines especially Pinot Noir. Dr Derek Milne one of the authors of the report was so convinced by their conclusions that he bought 15 acres of land with five other enthusiasts and started Martinborough Vineyard. Almost immediately it became apparent that Martinborough was capable of producing great wines and many accolades have been won with possibly the greatest being the Bouchard Finlayson Trophy for the "best Pinot Noir Worldwide" in 1997. Almost 30 years on from the first plantings Martinborough Vineyard is recognised today as an iconic producer of New Zealand wines with their flagship Pinot Noir being highly sought after worldwide..
