Te Mānia (the Maori name for ‘The Plains’), a Nelson family-owned winery, sits close to the stunning Tasman Bay coastline. The vineyards thrive on age-old alluvial terraces, traversed by rivers flowing from the mountains to the sea. These rocky soils, coupled with Nelson's cool maritime climate and abundant sunshine, yield grapes and wines of unparalleled quality.
The Nelson region stands as one of the premier cool-climate wine-producing areas in the New World. Its vineyards bask in the most sunshine hours among all grape-growing regions in New Zealand. This sunshine, tempered by the afternoon sea breeze that sweeps in, cools the vineyards. This slow ripening process, extending from September to the late March to April harvest, gradually intensifies the flavor of the grapes. Pairing this exceptional Nelson climate with ancient, well-drained stony clay loam soils results in handcrafted, vibrant white wines and elegantly structured red wines of remarkable quality.
By embracing organic vineyard management, Te Mānia authentically captures the vineyard's natural terroir and environment in its wines.
It's important to remember that taste is subjective, and personal preferences play a significant role.
