Spinyback

About

A New Zealand winery with a mission: every bottle you buy helps protect the Tuatara, a prehistoric reptile that's basically a living dinosaur. Named after the creature's Maori name meaning "spiny back," Spinyback turns wine purchases into conservation efforts.

Good to know

No — Spinyback does not operate a public tasting room. It's a production-only or by-allocation label, so its wines are found through retail, restaurants, or a mailing list rather than an on-site visit.
Spinyback focuses on Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Gris, and more. Signature bottles include Spinyback Sauvignon Blanc 2025, Spinyback Pinot Noir 2024, Spinyback Chardonnay 2023, Spinyback Riesling 2023, Spinyback Pinot Gris 2025, Spinyback Rosé 2024. When booking a tasting, ask which current release best represents the estate's style.
