From the beginning, Har and Sophie wanted the unique and wild terroir of the Awatere Valley to speak through the vines. Their instincts were right, and the first vintage from the Breloft Vineyard, an Eradus Sauvignon Blanc 2002, heralded a future of extraordinary wines,each reflecting the essence of the Awatere Valley.

Their son Michiel and his Kiwi wife Hanna, took over the business in 2004, committed to celebrating the unique terroir of this place. “Our philosophy is to bend to nature, letting the Awatere Valley imprint itself upon every Eradus wine,” says Michiel.
