Located within the world’s most southerly winemaking region, Rippon began its life in 1975 as an experiment by local New Zealand farmer Rolf Mills. Fifty years later, it remains under the watchful eye of the Mills family, and has retained its specialisation in biodynamic, organic wines from high in the Aotearoan hillsides. |

| No.26 Cloudy Bay Vineyards – NEW ENTRY, Marlborough
The overwhelming scale and beauty of NZ’s Cloudy Bay Vineyards can be taken in via four-by-four or even by helicopter. But for the ultimate itinerary, tour its vineyards before embarking on its private yacht into the Marlborough Sounds with a glass of signature sauvignon blanc in hand. It’s all-encompassing package earns it the title of The Best Vineyard in Australasia 2025. |
