About Quartz Reef Wines

Named after New Zealand’s largest quartz deposit that lies beneath their vineyards at Bendigo Station, Quartz Reef has become the vessel for what winemaker Rudi Bauer calls - his search to make wines which exhibit “a symphony of flavours” that “capture attention and entertain so that you forget everything else”.

About Domaine Rewa Wines

Domaine Rewa is a small 5.5 hectare vineyard located on the fluvial terraces nestled in the foothills of the Pisa Range. Although the property was planted in 1997, 2001 was Domaine Rewas first vintage. Wanting to make the most of this special plot of land Philippa Fourbet works with Grant Rolston, Gary Ford and winemaker Pete Bartle. Pete believes the best wines are produced in the vineyard so has a minimal interventionist approach. Learn more about Domaine Rewa Wines >
