Marlborough, New Zealand
Est. 1996
Organically grown with a deep reverence for tradition, our wines embody a respect for heritage—for the land that shapes us, the values that guide us, and the relationships we’ve carefully nurtured over time.
Inspired by the revered Huia bird—a sacred Māori symbol of honour and partnership. Each feather symbolised status and significance, a gift embodying the deepest respect. In the same spirit, each wine is crafted with deep care and integrity. Our winemaking is thoughtful, unhurried, and driven by a pursuit of purity and balance.
Alongside the Wairau River, Huia’s vines grow in a landscape defined by light—reflected in the Māori name ‘Kei puta te Wairau’, the place with the hole in the cloud.
From the outset, our focus has been on nurturing the land through organics, biodynamics, and regenerative practices—believing that healthy, living soils create more expressive, characterful wines. Our 6.5-hectare home block in Rapaura thrives in free-draining alluvial soils, layered with gravel, sand, and silt. Each year, the fruit seems to speak more clearly—balanced, vibrant, and rooted in place.
