The Family of 12

New Zealand wine has a great reputation internationally, but despite being highly thought-of, it commands just 0.2% of the international wine market.

Richard felt strongly that Palliser needed to be part of a small, quality group of New Zealand winemakers. A group that was representative of the best that New Zealand has to offer.

And so the Family of Twelve was born. An export-focused marketing alliance of some of the top winemakers in New Zealand, it promotes New Zealand wines internationally, hosting wine tastings and events in key markets. The group represents all parts of New Zealand and covers all varietals.

"Every award is special. As we win more, it just reinforces the consistency of our wine. That we’re not making good wine, we’re making great wine."

Carla, Administration Manager

It’s about promoting the quality of individual wines in the global market, with the ultimate aim of stimulating demand for all New Zealand wine.
