On a gentle north-facing slope near Tasman Village in the Nelson region, you’ll find Blackenbrook Vineyard – our small, hands-on winery producing wines of character and quality.
We planted our first vines in 2001 and have been making award-winning wines ever since. Today, our seven varieties are Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Gewürztraminer, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Montepulciano.
Our vines are rooted in the rich Moutere clay soils, with the warm Nelson sunshine and mild maritime climate creating ideal conditions for slow, even ripening.
We work hands-on from vineyard to bottle, letting the character of the terroir and each variety shine through. All our wines are vegan friendly, and we are proudly accredited by Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand.
Blackenbrook Vineyard is celebrating a Gold Medal for its Sauvignon Blanc 2026 at the New Zealand International Wine Show — a particularly significant result for the Tasman winery as it marks the very first wine made by winemaker Trudy Sheild and Ursula Schwarzenbach.
Our Sauvignon Blanc, Gewürztraminer and Rosé 2026 are officially released. It's been an intense journey from harvest to bottle, with lots of learning, many decisions, tastings, fine-tuning and a good dose of fun.
