Our Mission

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc to the World

Our Vineyards

We source our grapes from across the Marlborough region. From the Awatere Valley in the south to the Waihopai Valley in the west, the grapes made into wine at VinLink portray the sub-regional tastes and styles that make Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc world-famous.

Capacity 26,000T

Harvest is short in Marlborough, very short! This protects and enhances the grape flavor profiles that make our sauvignon blanc so distinctive.
With one of the most modern high volume wineries in New Zealand VinLink can process up to 2000T per day during harvest into some of largest ferment tanks in the country.
We know how to make high quality sauvignon blanc at scale to meet the world’s demand.

Highly awarded winemakers

From our founding winemaker who is the recipient of a Wine Marlborough Lifetime Achievement Award to more recently when one of our team won the 2024 Marlborough Young Winemaker of the Year our ‘behind the scenes’ winemaking team are amongst the best you will find in New Zealand. With exceptional local and global experience spanning New Zealand, Australia, Europe, North and South America we have a truly multi-cultural winemaking team.

Industry leading equipment

If you’re going to be the best Contract Winemaker then you start with the best equipment. VinLink led the first large scale deployment of the Della Toffla wine making platform with 100 ton presses and Omnia ceramic crossflow filtration. Today this early investment means we have one of the most reliable and cost efficient wineries in New Zealand.
