In 2016 we commemorated 20 years of Marlborough's Huia Vineyards by working with celebrated New Zealand photographer Dr Fiona Pardington (Ngāi Tahu, Kāti Mamoe and Ngāti Kahungunu), Chevalier de l'Ordre Française des Arts et des Lettres, as she created an original work of a pair of Huia, an extinct native bird of Aotearoa New Zealand, to be used on limited edition magnums of Huia Millennial Brut 2000.

18th August is Pinot Noir Day. Inconveniently it’s a Tuesday but really every day is Pinot Noir day, right? So don’t feel too put out.

Read a little more on this most noble grape and how to order your Huia range of Pinot Noir in time for that Tuesday!

The Huia was a legendary bird native to New Zealand. The Huia had exceptional dimorphism where there was an extreme difference in the shape of the bill between the gender of the bird.

At Huia Vineyards we use no pesticides, insecticides or herbicides in our vineyards. Within the wine making process we eliminate the use of artificial additives. This leaves the wine full of natural texture.
