Ushering in the Spring Equinox, this year’s Organic Wine Week took place 16-22 September 2024 with events hosted throughout the region and country.

Organic winegrowers are a passionate and growing community in New Zealand and the week is a chance to celebrate wines from independently certified organic and biodynamic growers, and to share, learn and taste what makes organic wine so distinctive.
