Castlebrae Vineyards

Castlebrae Vineyards

At Castlebrae, we believe that great wine begins with great land. 740 hectares in the heart of the Awatere Valley, where the Pacific Ocean meets the river’s mouth. With breathtaking views of Wellington’s rugged mountains across the sea, our vineyard thrives on the power and purity of the land that surrounds it. Castlebrae Sauvignon, nurtured on this very soil, has garnered recognition far and wide, earning multiple awards for its exceptional quality. Its success is rooted in the inherent strength of the land itself—a land that shapes every vine, every grape, and every bottle we produce. Building on the foundation of Castlebrae, we proudly introduced our second brand, Taitoa, meaning 'brave' and 'courageous' in Māori. Taitoa embodies the spirit that drives us: The bravery to embrace the land’s wildness, the courage to transform it, and the vision to share its fruits with the world. With Castlebrae and Taitoa, we celebrate not only the natural majesty of our land but also the boldness that defines our craft. Together, they tell the story of a vineyard deeply connected to its roots and committed to excellence in every sip
