The Darling Wines

Organic pioneers in Marlborough, New Zealand

After making wine for other people for many years, winemaker Chris Darling and viticulturist Bart Arnst teamed up in 2007 to make great wines under their own label.  Bart is a founding member of Organic Winegrowers of New Zealand, and previously worked for Seresin Vineyards, overseeing their conversion to organics. He left in 2005 to provide a consultant service to those interested in organic change and has worked closely with a large percentage of the New Zealand organic winegrower sector.

They work with select small and mostly family growers - all certified organic or bioydnamic. All wines are also vegan.
