Supernatural Wine Co.

We met Supernatural Wine Co. via their US importer Whanau and are very excited to carry their skin contact wines! They are a producer of certified organic, naturally vinified, low sulphur white and skin-fermented white wines from a north-facing hillside estate in Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

"Our philosophy relies on great terroir and traditional processes...We do not fine our wines and we have not filtered our skin-fermented wines from the 2015 vintage onwards. We want to focus on producing dry aromatic and skin-fermented white wines in a very clean and direct style." -Supernatural Wine Co.


About the Winemaker

Supernatural Wine Co.

We encountered Supernatural Wine Co. through their US importer Whanau and are thrilled to feature their skin contact wines! They specialize in certified organic, naturally vinified, low sulfur white and skin-fermented white wines sourced from a north-facing hillside estate in Hawke's Bay, New Zealand. Embracing a philosophy rooted in exceptional terroir and traditional methods, they prioritize crafting wines that authentically express their unique terroir. Dry farming their vineyard and relying on indigenous yeast for fermentation, they maintain a hands-off approach, adding only minimal sulfur before bottling.

The Region

Hawke's Bay, New Zealand

Hawke's Bay, situated on the eastern coast of New Zealand's North Island, produces natural wines that embody the region's diverse terroir and innovative winemaking spirit. Blessed with a maritime-influenced climate and a range of soil types, including gravelly river terraces and limestone-rich hillsides, Hawke's Bay offers ideal conditions for grape cultivation. Here, winemakers embrace sustainable practices and minimal intervention in the cellar, allowing the true expression of the fruit to shine through. Indigenous grape varieties such as Syrah, Chardonnay, and Merlot thrive in this unique environment, yielding wines of exceptional quality and complexity. From elegant and aromatic whites to bold and expressive reds, Hawke's Bay's natural wines capture the essence of the region's vibrant landscapes and pioneering winemaking ethos, inviting drinkers to experience the pure, unadulterated flavors of New Zealand with each sip.
