About Johanneshof Cellars

This Marlborough gem was founded by two winemakers trained in Germany's Rheingau region, and they've been crafting sustainably produced wines since 1991, from aromatic whites to award-winning dessert wines and even their own grape brandy. You can taste under 50-year-old trees overlooking the vineyard, then tour New Zealand's first underground rock cellar, which was literally blasted 50 meters into the sandstone hillside. There's a solid chance one of the founders themselves will pour for you.
