Let us introduce you…

…to the wines of the Blackenbrook family vineyard. Our seven grape varieties prosper in the balanced maritime climate and Moutere clay soil of our 20 hectare vineyard halfway between Nelson and the Abel Tasman National Park.

We are Daniel and Ursula Schwarzenbach, small winemakers with a big vision and a genuine determination to improve the style of each vintage. Proudly hands-on, we nurture grapes from the soil to the bottle in our sustainable vineyard and gravity-fed winery and in spite of all the awards, we prefer to let you judge for yourself, without the hype.

Let our wines speak for themselves.
