Mount Fishtail
Marlborough, NZ
Mount Fishtail was founded by Andrew Bailey, an ex cricketer turned “gumboot Winemaker” back in 2008 during the GFC. Mount Fishtail, named after the mountain shapes of the Marlborough Sounds is a Winery with a difference. Some could say reverse engineered.
Mount Fishtail was created because Andrew needed some great value quality wines to service his wholesale business in the Netherlands. It was the need to hit a price point and to import exactly what he knew the European market needed.
After selling the business in 2008 he came back to New Zealand to concentrate on Mount Fishtail, which now has up to 400 hectares of vineyards to source fruit, including 70 of their own. This capacity gives us the opportunity to take advantage of this exciting supply chain and offer “great wine at a great price”.
