TE WHARE RA(TWR)
Te Whare Ra, often abbreviated as TWR, is one of New Zealand’s most respected boutique wineries, located in the Marlborough region at the northern tip of the South Island. Established in 1979, the estate is home to some of Marlborough’s oldest vineyards and has built an international reputation for producing wines of exceptional purity, balance, and site expression.
Owned and operated by Anna and Jason Flowerday since 2003, Te Whare Ra follows a hands-on approach to viticulture and winemaking. The estate is certified organic and managed with a strong commitment to sustainability, allowing the vineyards to express the unique character of Marlborough’s cool-climate terroir.
Te Whare Ra is particularly renowned for Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Riesling, Chardonnay, and Gewürztraminer. The Sauvignon Blanc wines display vibrant aromas of citrus, passionfruit, lime, and fresh herbs, balanced by texture and mineral freshness. Pinot Noir offers red cherry, raspberry, spice, and silky tannins, while the aromatic varieties showcase purity, complexity, and exceptional varietal definition.
The winery’s philosophy focuses on low yields, hand harvesting, and minimal intervention in the cellar. This meticulous approach results in wines that are elegant, expressive, and reflective of both vineyard and vintage.
Today, Te Whare Ra is recognised as one of Marlborough’s benchmark producers, crafting wines that consistently earn acclaim from critics, sommeliers, and wine enthusiasts around the world. Its commitment to organic farming and quality-driven winemaking has established the estate among New Zealand’s finest wine producers.
