Nautilus Estate Marlborough Cuvee Brut

The mathematically perfect spiral of the Nautilus shell has been admired since ancient Greek times…and in more recent times by lovers of Champagne quality fizz since 1989.

Don’t take our word for it. This Marlborough Methode Traditionelle (made in the same way as Champagne) is a wine that’s won numerous Trophies and Golds and was selected among NZ’s “Fine Wine” list (served to Air NZ’s Business Premier class). More recently it’s scored 95/100 with Master of Wine Bob Campbell, and had NZ critic Michael Cooper claiming it to be “among the finest in the country“.

First launched in 1985 as a premium, family owned NZ winery. These days Nautilus are part of a bigger (and very prestigious) family – The Family of Twelve.

Twelve of NZ’s most iconic, successful wineries that share information, ideas and even the odd secret or two. The top brass of NZ wineries sit round this table – Villa Maria, Kumeu River, Millton, Craggy Range, Ata Rangi, Palliser Estate, Neudorf, Lawsons, Fromm, Pegasus Bay, Felton Road and Nautilus.
