APPELLATION MARLBOROUGH WINE ANNUAL COLLECTION
We are SO EXCITED to share that TWO of our wines made it into the 2025 Appellation Marlborough Wine Annual Collection. The Annual Collection is a celebration of just 12 benchmark certified wines, selected by an esteemed panel to showcase diversity, quality and authenticity from the region.
ROHE Rapaura Sauvignon Blanc 2025 & ROHE Blind River Sauvignon Blanc 2025 by Rapaura Springs were both selected from 93 wines. ROHE Blind River has been selected again for the second year in a row!
93 AMW Certified wines were tasted blind over an intensive eight-hour session by a distinguished independent panel. This year, New Zealand judges Stephen Wong MW and Cameron Douglas MS were joined by Australia’s Toni Paterson MW. Michael Wentworth, CEO of AMW, says, "The panel’s collective expertise mirrors the rigour of our certification process; through robust discussion and careful deliberation they have identified the twelve wines that best represent our benchmark, across our diverse sub-regions and styles."

"ROHE" means territory. The range was created to demonstrate the diversity of Marlborough through its unique and distinct sub-regional locations. Selecting the best fruit from multiple vineyards within each sub-region, the ROHE wines encapsulate how the influence of climate, proximity to the sea and soil type can produce vastly different wine characteristics from within the Marlborough region. The ROHE range encompasses the meaning of terroir, showcasing a sense of place, unlocking the regions true potential and redefining the future of Marlborough.
Congratulations to the other wineries featured in the Top 12; we're in great company!
