About Ten Sisters
Sustainably farmed / Woman Owned
The Ten Sisters and their brother are fourth-generation New Zealanders and their ancestors were among the first settlers of the southern tip of the South Island of New Zealand.
Their parents, Robert and Mary King, were both born in Invercargill, the southernmost city in the country. After Robert returned from World War II, he bought 750 acres of wild, uncultivated land and, over many years, created a beautiful farm.
He and Mary would eventually have 11 children, only one a son. As adults, the 11 children often traveled around the world with their parents, sharing and developing their great love of food and wine. Later in life, they moved to the sunniest part of New Zealand, Marlborough, and planted a vineyard on their land, fulfilling a longtime dream of Mary’s.

Vibrant, with mango, nectarine and Key lime flavors that are expressive and generous on a plump, juicy frame, while notes of lemongrass and lemon basil linger.

Smooth and creamy, with pretty details of tomato leaf, forest floor and spice complementing the strawberry-rhubarb and cranberry flavors at the core. The tannins are plump and polished, and the finish lingers effortlessly. Drink now through 2034. 550 cases made, 500 cases imported.
