There has been speculation that the French aren’t putting up a full strength team, tell that to Richie and the boys after they have come out from under the first ruck and see what they say! The All Blacks need a great performance to set them up for the knock out stages of the competition so lets get behind them with a rousing #Twaka

Starting Friday 23rd at Midday (NZST) we will post the lead verse of the Haka on Twitter from our @Toreawines account.

We all know the Rugby World Cup is just around the corner. So at Torea we want to show the world how passionate we are about our country and our team. Come World Cup time we are going to make some noise and show our support. We need YOU there participating in the TWAKA to make it happen.

So tell your mates what it is all about and we will work out a game plan together.

Cheers for now

There are in fact reports of big crops out there and I guess as with everything else when it comes to buying wine you get what you pay for. Marlborough wines are generally very good value for money anyway but there have been wines appearing on the market that are at prices much lower than we have ever seen Marlborough wines which begs the question should we be concerned about this? Well I believe the answer is it depends! That is if you are producing wine at low price points you are going to find it a little more crowded. If on the other hand your wines are offering brand values and great quality then as long as you continue to deliver you should be okay.

We try to deliver excellent quality in our wines at a good price made from grapes that we grow ourselves, so the consumer can buy with confidence that the next bottle of Torea will be at least as good a quality as their first experience.

To achieve continuity in our wines we ensure we have continuity in the vineyard. As it is our vineyard this is much easier to achieve. Continuity between vintages in the vineyard is all about balance, balanced vines = balanced wines. Our yields were average because our vines are in balance; it is all about attention to detail in the vineyard. Take care of business in the vineyard and you will be rewarded in the bottle on the shelf.

In the wine business you must have your end product, wine as your driver, do that and with sensible business management and the market will reward you. On the other hand if you start with profits as your main driver then you can get caught with over cropped vines, unbalanced wines and ultimately the market will punish you.

While you will have to wait to try the fantastic 2011 wines for yourself, you can try the equally fantastic 2010 wines, which are at, good wine stores or email us for the outlet nearest you.

Cheers for now
