O:TU Wines

O:TU Wines from the Awatere Valley: bold and uncompromised Marlborough wines.

Our six vineyards are set alongside the snow-fed Otuwhero River in the lower Awatere Valley, stretching to the Pacific coastline. Each has its own defining characteristics in the rolling and terraced terrain, allowing us to craft distinctive and appealing wines.

O:TU does not take the typical Marlborough approach: our winemaker has a truly European perspective and with extended lees contact and stirring, our wine delivers nuanced flavours and finer textures.

With a range of highly awarded wines from our own vineyards, complemented by impressive Hawkes Bay reds, we offer restaurants, bars, cafes and hotels an outstanding collection of wines to suit your cuisine, customer and taste, for every occasions.

Above all, we are proudly Awatere; champions of a place and a style that isn’t a follower, but offers a genuine difference. O:TU wine is truly distinctive, always memorable and deeply satisfying.
