TOHU WINES

Tohu Wines is the world's first and most recognised Māori owned wine company. Since 1998, Tohu has been producing estate grown, single vineyard wines from New Zealand's premier grape growing regions. The Tohu winemaking philosophy is to create wines that capture the flavours of each region’s unique landscapes, whilst upholding respect and protection of the land for future generations. Our vineyards are certified Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand and we see this as an integral part of our values, working with the environment without compromising quality and integrity.

Bruce Taylor

Bruce Taylor is our winemaker and comes to us with a Bachelor of Applied Science (BASc), Wine Science. He became interested in the world of wine in his late 20s while travelling overseas and joined the company in 2008, He believes 'that wine should encapsulate a place and a time. As a product it doesn’t play by the same rules as mass-produced consumer goods. It's always different from year to year, place to place. Bruce and his team work hard to make wines that reflect the block, vineyard and region they come from.
