dashwood hero origins

Where Our Story Begins


Dashwood wines are inspired by the Dashwood Pass, a winding road that connects two iconic winegrowing regions where we grow our grapes – the Wairau Valley and the Awatere Valley in Marlborough, New Zealand. These valleys are known for their alluvial soils and cool, coastal climate, which help our vines produce vibrant, aromatic fruit, with intense flavours that develop over a long ripening period.

New Zealand. Pure And Simple.

Since 1989, we’ve been passionate about creating wines that reflect the true spirit of Marlborough. By sourcing grapes from our sustainably farmed estate vineyard and trusted local growers in both Wairau and Awatere valleys, we craft wines that are bright, textured, and a true expression of our remarkable region. Each bottle tells the story of our land, its people, and the natural beauty that surrounds us.

Care And Respect For Our Natural Environment

Dashwood embraces the natural beauty of the coastlines and unique flora and fauna that are synonymous with New Zealand. Taking inspiration from the native Pohutuwaka that flowers in the summertime along New Zealand coastlines, our wines embody the care and respect we have for our precious environment. We go beyond industry standards, embracing sustainability in every aspect—from packaging and water conservation to land care and wildlife protection. Learn more about our sustainability practices.
