Makara

Makara is situated in Marlborough, New Zealand's South Island, where cool maritime conditions and mineral-rich soils define the region's signature style. The winery focuses on Sauvignon Blanc, the varietal that has made Marlborough internationally recognized. Sauvignon Blanc from Makara expresses the region's characteristic intensity—bright acidity, herbaceous notes, and citrus-driven aromatics shaped by the South Island's distinctive terroir.
