Whyte Estate Wines

Welcome to Whyte Estate

Nestled in Marlborough, our vineyard crafts wines that reflect the spirit of New Zealand’s sun-soaked valleys.

The late Joyce Whyte, born to English and Polish Jew parents, had her lifetime dream to have a vineyard and winery finally fulfilled. Her daughter and granddaughter established Joyce Whyte Estate in her memory. Joyce was a strong, outstanding person in her field and pioneered the modern woman’s role.

This Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of grapefruit, gooseberry and crushed herbs with tomato and blackcurrant leaf in the mix. These characters carry through to the palate which has great vibrancy and fruit weight balanced beautifully with crisp, clean acidity all gathering momentum to the finish.

Grown in a valley boarded by oceans and mountians

Through winds that vary from sea breezes to roaring forties

Through long hours of intense sunshine and crisp, cold nights

Through months of elemental extremes, our grapes endure...

...to become the perfect wine you enjoy today.
