VAVASOUR

The Vavasour family arrived in New Zealand in 1890 and settled in Awatere Valley. In 1985, Peter Vavasour noticed the region’s winemaking potential and planted the first grapes. Vavasour released their first vintage in 1989.

Vavsor is committed to sustainable winemaking and farming, and has been fully Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand (SWNZ) accredited since 2000. Vavasour wines are available in New Zealand, Australia, United Kingdom, Denmark, Germany, and the United States.
