About the Winery
Paddy Borthwick

Proudly family owned, the Borthwick vineyard is an established vineyard situated in Gladstone, the heart of the Wairarapa. Producing quality wine for over a decade, Paddy, an experienced wine maker, has gained a reputation for producing consistently great wines. The twenty seven hectares of vines bordering the Ruamahunga River are growing on stony, free draining, alluvial soils, with a micro climate giving warm daily temperatures, cool nights and low rainfall; perfect conditions for producing distinctive, quality wines.
In line with the family’s legacy of international trade, 90 percent of the wine is exported around the world. Paddy believes in sustainability and best practice within a vineyard, developing an asset for generations to come.
Like the four P’s of marketing, we believe in the four P’s of Wine: Place, People, Passion, and Philosophy.
Press Reviews
Wine Orbit
95 points
This is impressively ripe and wonderfully fragrant with Black Doris plum, toasted spice, thyme, vanilla and hazelnut characters, leading to a concentrated palate delivering excellent weight and power, while remaining elegant and stylish. Richly expressed and delectably satisfying. At its best: now to 2031.
