Amoise
Amoise wines are made by Amy Farnsworth in Te Matau a Māui, Hawke's Bay. She works with certified & in conversion organic grapes sourced locally because she believes in responsible farming, improving the health of our soils & having healthy fruit so that she can make wines with no additions or adulterations.

Amy farms all of her parcels biodynamically to improve and understand her connection to the land. This encourages biodiversity, life energy & optimal health in the vineyard. She loves working with the smaller plantings in Aotearoa -  Gamay Noir, Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Franc & Albariño.

Greystone
Our Greystone journey began in 2000 when the Thomas family discovered a unique piece of land in the Omihi Hills of New Zealand’s Waipara Valley. The limestone-rich soil, born from an ancient seabed, captured our imagination and inspired us to dream big. Regenerative viticulture and organic winegrowing practices ensure we are working in harmony with our land, resulting in wines that achieve acclaim amongst global critics and local wine lovers alike.
Today, Greystone stands as a testament to what can be achieved with passion, hard work, and a deep respect for the land. We are proud to continue our journey, crafting wines that capture the essence of our home in the Omihi Hills and sharing them with the world.

What matters is in the bottle, not on the label.
TINCAN Wines are made from a small batch of organically farmed grapes from the Nelson region. The yeast used for fermentation is found in the vineyard and no additives of any kind are added during the winemaking process; not even sulphur. Finally, the wine is bottled by hand with zero fining or filtration; keeping even the toughest of vegan critics happy.
