Destiny Bay has been announced as the #2 winery in New Zealand by @therealrvw in the Top Wineries of New Zealand awards. A spot that we have now occupied for a third consecutive year! A huge thanks and our deep appreciation to @bobcampbellmw and the team at @therealrvw for recognising the efforts of our winemaking team, year after year.
Destiny Bay wines come from a tiny corner of Waiheke Island, New Zealand, where the soil, site and climate favour the grape like nowhere else.
From the beginning, the Spratt family embraced an unwavering commitment to excellence and the authentic expression of this place. This is why Destiny Bay wines are rated among the top cabernet blends in the world.
A Love for the Land
The distinctive soil, site and mesoclimate of our vineyards lie at the heart of our winemaking style. Ecological balance is more than a social responsibility, it is good grape growing and winemaking practice.
In addition to being a fully accredited Sustainable Winegrowing New Zealand® vineyard & winery, Destiny Bay has built energy efficient structures, developed environmentally sensitive vineyard and winemaking practices, and planted over 500 native trees. All these practices are aimed at reducing our carbon footprint, impact on the environment, and consumption of fossil fuels.
Inspiration, Craft and Science
Delicately balanced. Distinctive harmony and finesse. Deep, clear, brilliant color. Inviting and complex aromas. Elegant structure. Soft and smooth mouth feel. Rich in varietal flavor.
Sophisticated tools. State-of-art equipment. Rigorous science. This is the foundation upon which a fiercely talented team of people create a masterpiece.
Destiny Bay is a tiny corner of Waiheke Island, New Zealand - gently contoured like an ancient amphitheatre with a maritime Mediterranean climate, producing acclaimed Cabernet blends.
