Delegat's Wine Estate is one of New Zealand's largest family winemakers, owned and managed by brother and sister team Jim and Rosemari Delegat. Delegat's philosophy is to produce wines from only the grape varieties for which the region's viticulture has become world renowned. The company's winemaking objective is to express the unique character and harmony of style of each region's viticulture, based on New Zealand's cool, maritime climate. The unique aspects of each individual vineyard are used to produce fine, consistent wines that express the character and regional harmony of Hawke's Bay. We strive to capture and express unique varietal character - flavourful, soft, and generous wines, all beautifully enriched and patiently aged in French oak barriques. Above all, every handcrafted Delegat's Wine Estate Reserve wine reflects an extraordinary combination of ideal vineyard location, modern viticultural management and skilled winemaking, underpinned by the unwavering commitment of a family that has been passionate about viticulture and winemaking in New Zealand for over 50 years..
