Our Journey
After five years in the heart of South Australia’s wine country, Mort and Elise returned to New Zealand, settling in the renowned wine region of Martinborough. In August 2002, they found their perfect patch—a 5-acre vineyard and winery that would become Tiwaiwaka. Just a year later, their passion bore fruit with Tiwaiwaka’s first vintage in 2003, marking the beginning of their hands-on winemaking journey.
