Organic & Biodynamic Wines

Organic & Biodynamic WInes

All the wines listed in this section are organic or biodynamic to varying degrees. Here, we list the wine which are also in organic conversion (i.e. not completed the 3 year process), with each wine listing its status.

Biodynamic goes a little further than organic. It is an all encompassing philosophy which has at its heart the biodynamic composts and sprays with actions performed account to the biodynamic calendar of root, leaf, flower, and fruit days.

The Country

New Zealand

New Zealand

Brits have fallen in love with the wines of New Zealand. The affair probably has much to do with the colonial heritage, but it also has a great deal to do with the excellent, benchmark wines that are produced here. The story must begin with Sauvignon Blanc, but certainly doesn’t end there. Since the 1970s the region of Marlborough has become the go-to area, perhaps in the world, for bright, crystalline ‘Savs’ which gave the French something to think about. But now, it is becoming as equally famous for its Pinots, which are now beyond just being less expensive alternatives to Burgundy, instead showing regional characteristics, from the dark cherry and spice of Central Otago to the brawn and dried herbs of Martinborough.

A special mention goes to the Chardonnays of Kumeu River of Auckland, as these are some of the most remarkable wines from this variety in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Producer

Villa Maria

Villa Maria was founded in 1961 by Sir George Fistonich, originally a few hectares of land in Auckland. Now they are among New Zealand's largest wine producers, encompassing vineyards from nearly all of the country's wine regions. Despite their size, they are still 100% family owned. At Noble Grape we are great fans of their wines: they are for us, they are benchmark examples of their type, pretty much across the board in everything they do. From the Bordeaux-beating reds from Hawkes Bay to the bright and crystalline Savs from Marlborough.
