We are a small, family-owned winery based in the stunningly beautiful Marlborough region of New
Zealand. We aim to craft delicious, food-friendly wines from the clean, cool and diverse valleys of
Marlborough.
The striking Nautilus shell - its shape expressing natural beauty and mathematical perfection - is our
inspiration to create a collection of expressive, textural, precisely crafted wines.
Whilst Nautilus wines can easily be enjoyed on their own, we believe they are even better when
paired with delicious food and the philosophy of creating food-friendly wines is paramount for
wine-maker Clive Jones.
The Nautilus Shell
The mathematically perfect spiral of the Nautilus
shell has been admired since ancient Greek
times. This shape is found throughout nature: in
the growth of seeds on a sunflower head, in the
Winemakers: Mike Collins, Clive air movement of a cyclone, or in the spiral
Jones and Brett Bermingham through which a hawk flies towards its prey. This
natural balance and proportion is something we
seek to express in our wines.
