"A wine that makes a difference"
Casablanca Valley
HOW IT ALL STARTED
Since his first visit to Chile´s Casablanca Valley in 2007, He has always had the passion to produce a wine that showed a perfect combination between his New Zealand experience and talent, and the quality of the grapes from this unique Valley.
This idea came to fruition in 2019 when together with Viticulturist Iñigo Undurraga they explored de vineyards that the family owns in the different sub valleys of Casablanca, selecting the premium parcel’s for Jabber wines.
The philosophy of this project is to use modern winemaking techniques to bring to the wine drinker the terroir which is Casablanca.
With three Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc and a one Blend from the same three, JABBER is a project that has shown through his winemaking experience, the incalculable potential of a valley recognized per the quality of its soil and climate to grow Word –class Sauvignon Blanc.
JABBER - THE WINEMAKER
Nearly every wine drinker, and a good number of non-wine drinkers, know him.
He has become synonymous with Kiwi Sauvignon.
He trained at New Zealand’s Massey University and specialized in Oenology at South Australia’s Roseworthy College. His first jobs included vintages in Napa Valley and South Africa. He returned to his native New Zealand in 1988 and worked at Coopers Creek Vineyard for some 10 years.
Since he sold his Original brand to Vincor in Canada, he is dedicated with his wife to a New Zealand Family owned Estate, organically farmed. At the same time, He has put his talent in developing his only project outside New Zealand producing, JABBER Sauvignon Blanc from Chile´s Casablanca Valley
